The hairy field spider could star in its own monster movie. Covered in spines and fur, this spider would be scary if it weren’t so tiny. Yet it can take on a much bigger moth or fly. That’s because it builds webs at night when they are hard to see. Bugs that stick to the web become food for the spider. Learn more about how it feeds and kills in All About African Hairy Field Spiders.

Spiders seem scary. The baboon spider is big and hairy. So is the wolf spider. Others, like the the button spider are much smaller. Yet even the biggest, meanest looking spider isn’t very interested in hurting people. Spiders want food. And their favorite food is bugs. Spiders eat insects that harm crops. They help get rid of pests in homes. They do a lot of good. Learn more about these amazing arachnids in Spiders Around the World: Africa. Each title is filled with close-up, color photos of spiders. You’ll see spiders with six eyes. You’ll see spiders who build unusual webs. Plus, each book offers a glossary, an index, and further reading for more information.
