Synopsis

An exciting interactive picture book following the adventures of a speckly spider with big ambitions. Speckle is sure he's a special kind of spider, but he doesn't feel appreciated enough in his home amongst the banana leaves of the Bahamas. So he leaves on an adventure, seeking fame and recognition. At first people aren't interested in his tap dancing. Then they are too interested - and even Speckle learns an important lesson about celebrity. With maps, flaps and surprises throughout the book, Speckle the spider's tale is told with humour and charm - even arachnophobes will find him irresistible!
