Rating: 4 stars
Summary: story in high drama
Review: At first I didn't know how to feel about the VERY high level of suspense, and melodrama pushed into every minute detail of this book from the children answering rollcall to some healthcare staff who would be over the top even for General Hospital. However, the style really grew on me and I found the whole story very endearing. I especially admire the way Maguire protrayed the children as high thinking individuals who enjoyed school and participating in life. Too often children are looked down on as one dimensional and too snotty and superior to care about things. My favorite scene in the book was Lois Kennedy the third and her nonchalant responses to Meg Snoople in her town square 'interview'.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: SPIDERS!!!!
Review: For this 9 weeks, I read Seven Spiders Spinning, by Gregory Maguire. The book is so funny! I love it! There are seven books in this series. Gregory Maguire is a great writer.
Seven Spider Spinning is a humorous book. Like I said before this book is really funny! The book of course is a story ; it's not true. It's about seven baby Siberian spiders who got frozen in a big block of ice during the ice age. When the spiders unfroze, they each saw seven girls who they felt in love with. The older the spiders became the more dangerous they became. The seven spiders followed the seven girls everywhere. When the seven girls teacher got bitten by one of these mean spiders she got sick, so sick she could have died...
The books strengths is it's so funny, that most people would want to keep on reading it. The books weaknesses is it is so short. If he made it longer than the story would last longer, and more people will want to read it.
I think the author did a great job of writing this book. He made it funny so more people would want to read his books. Also I would recommend this book to people who likes to read books about spiders, and people who like funny books. I hope people will enjoy this book as muck as I did!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: SPIDERS!!!!
Review: I hated it! I had to stop reading in the middle of book because I was in TOTAL PAIN the story was so stupid. My goodness, is the world running so low on storylines we have to read about some wierd ancient spiders that fall in love with some ditzy humans! Frankly, I didn't care if all the charecters died in the first 50 pages! I wanted to burn the book so no one else would have to wast any precise time even picking it up!!!!!!!!!!!! The ONLY reasons why I would give it 1 star is because NO ONE ELSE would EVER think of that....imaginative of a story and because the author actually did take time to write the story.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: You've got to read it!!!
Review: We rated it a 5 because we think the characters were really funny! We liked the kids and the spiders the most! Our favorite part was when Miss Earth got bitten on the neck by the last spider and it wasn't a pretty site.The funniest character was Meg Snoople the news reporter. She had a funny attitude about making the news instead of just reporting it!!!!!!!!!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: We guarantee you will like it!
Review: We rated this book 5 stars!!!!We liked it because the characters were funny and dramatic.A good example of this was Meg Snoople,the television news reporter with her cameraman!
