Little Ant and the Spider: Misfortune Tests the Sincerity of Friends — S.M.R. Saia

Little Ant finds himself in a sticky situation when he lets a group of older ants pressure him into visiting the spider. They claim the spider is wise, but will talking to her help Little Ant figure out who his real friends are? The Little Ant books are reimaginings of Aesop's classic fables, teaching timeless lessons like appearances can be deceiving, look before you leap, and you can't please everyone. The stories follow Little Ant as he navigates through the challenges and frustrations of growing up. Each is whimsically illustrated by Tina Perko.
