5.0 out of 5 stars The Spider and the Fly, 15 Dec 2005
This review is from: The Spider and the Fly (Paperback)
This is the most delightful picture book we have ever read. The fact that it is illustrated in black and white gives it the atmosphere of film noir!
Scan each page carefully and you'll delights at every turn.
Watch out particularly for the curtains made from butterfly wings - stunning!

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely stunning, 16 Jun 2007
This review is from: The Spider and the Fly (Paperback)
I read to my 4 year old every night, usually at least one different story and one 'favourite'. We got this out as a library book as one of this week's 'different' books and I was amazed. The drawings are just beautifuly done and the traditional poem inspires a 'spooky' voice to be used. After reading it I took the book down to show my wife as I was just so knocked out by the quality of the combination of drawings and tale. This is the first time I have done this in over 4 years and probably 1000+ bedtime stories, which puts this book in the top 0.1%

Utterly amazing. And here now to buy it as the library want theirs back!

5.0 out of 5 stars STUNNING!, 25 Jun 2006
This review is from: The Spider and the Fly (Paperback)
Tony DiTerlizzi is my all time favorite artist. His wicked style captured me from the first time I saw his work. And this gothic tale for kids and grown-up kids alike, is just...well perfect! It's dark, its scary, and it's absolutely beautiful! A wonderful wonderful re-making of the famous tale of the "Spider and the Fly".
Every dark-minded person should have it!
