Description:

Bestselling author David Kirk brings his Miss Spider book series to life in this film debut about a mother's love, cleverly set in a bug's world. As the film's executive producer, Kirk has skillfully transposed his luminous illustrations onto the screen in sparkling animation. The story finds the sweet-natured Miss Spider (voiced by Brooke Shields) newly married to noble and bespectacled Holley (voiced by Rick Moranis). The love bugs soon hatch a brood of babies and discover that parenting is full of challenges; namely, keeping track of their small son, Squirt. When a mysterious visitor appears in the meadow, Squirt takes it deep into the forest and right into the web of menacing arachnid strongman, Spideris. Though Kirk departs from his trademark rhyming prose to bring about the full-length film, he continues to delight with his usual scattering of playful puns, such as when a flying Squirt squeals, "Hey Mom, I'm surfin' the web." Spiderifically fun. (Ages 4 to 10) --Lynn Gibson
