Spid the Spider is Easy Spider

Spid the Spider has often dreamed of owning a smart, shiny, loud Darley Havidson motorbike. But what Spid wants isn’t always what’s best for him – especially when it leads to him making big

decisions too quickly. After all, if something seems too good to be true, could that be because it is? With plenty of surprises under the saddle, Spid finds himself zooming into a hilarious misadventure full of U-turns, bumps, and life lessons.

This sixteenth Spid the Spider adventure is a fun and funny story with gentle lessons in financial literacy, decision-making, and resilience—ideal for home or classroom reading.

With catchy songs, clever wordplay, and a heartwarming message about money, mistakes, and making the best of things, Spid the Spider Is Easy Spider is perfect for 5–10s—and anyone who’s ever wanted something just a little too much.

Spid is a role model for children. He’s a hard-working, cool, and funny spider, who makes mistakes, but learns from them. He helps children embrace what psychologists call a ‘growth mindset’ - a determination to better oneself and succeed. All books are supported by free parent and teacher resources to entertain and inspire children, helping them learn. These include a 'decision making flowchart.

Two songs also feature in the book; ‘Easy Spider’ and ‘Motorcycle Melancholy’. ‘Easy Spider’ is a rock ‘n’ roll banger, with a catchy electric guitar riff. It echoes the freedom of driving on

open roads “I’m a real cool rider, I’m an Easy Spider”. ‘Motorcycle Melancholy’ is a song about lost love, love lost though the high cost of maintaining Spid’s bike, and his mistakes in cutting corners. It has a mesmerising accordion section.
