New Holland Publishers, 2026

Another new title in the hugely popular ‘Did You Know?’ series from Young Reed, this book takes an informative and entertaining look at the subject of Australian Spiders, being packed with captivating facts and stunning images. Loved by some and dreaded by others, Spiders often inspire strong emotions among humans. Did you know? …  Although there are a few potentially deadly spider species in Australia, there have been no human fatalities for nearly half a century thanks to highly effective antivenoms.  More than ten thousand different species of Spiders call Australia home, from tiny iridescent peacock spiders to huge tarantulas.  Orb-weavers spin a web more than two metres across that is strong enough to capture prey such as small lizards and birds.  Each spread covers a different aspect of arachnid life, from ‘What is a Spiderl?’ and ‘Special adaptations’ to ‘What’s for dinner’ and ‘Life in the web’.  The book contains bite-sized chunks of interesting information coupled with stunning photographs, which combine to make this an engaging and entertaining introduction to the subject that’s bound to capture the imagination of any reader.
