NEW 25th Anniversary Edition! It's Christmas Eve and Miss Spider should be feeling full of cheer. But even in her cozy home, among wrapped gifts and the brightly decorated tree, there's something missing. Little Miss Spider wishes most of all that she had a little brother or sister to help her build snowy creatures and eat Betty Beetle's fig pudding, and when she meets orphan Asparugus Gus Beetle, Little Miss Spider thinks her wishes have been granted.

Little Miss Spider continues to warm the hearts of her fans in this touching, jolly holiday tale. Young readers will enjoy seeing Miss Spider and her new friend Asparagus Beetle making snow butterflies (like our snow angels, but made with lots more legs) and dashing through snow tunnels mined by the mice.
