About the book
Wicked Webs
A creepy-cool guide to the wildest spider webs on Earth, from silk lassos and underwater bubbles to trapdoors, tunnels, and slingshot webs.
Get tangled up in the amazing world of spider webs! In Wicked Webs: The Sticky Science of Spider Silk, kids will discover that spider webs are far more than sticky traps—they're some of nature's most incredible inventions. From giant orb webs and tangled cobwebs to hidden trapdoors and silk-lined tunnels, every web is a masterpiece designed to catch prey, avoid predators, and help spiders survive.
Meet master builders, clever hunters, and sneaky ambush experts as you explore the many ways spiders use silk. Learn how spiders create sticky glue, feel tiny vibrations through their webs, disguise themselves as bird droppings, recycle their own silk, and use amazing adaptations to outsmart both prey and predators.
Packed with eye-popping illustrations, fascinating facts, and surprising science, each spread reveals how a different spider builds its home, catches its meals, and navigates the world. Along the way, discover strange spider superpowers, cutting-edge technologies inspired by spider silk, and some of the most ingenious engineering found anywhere in nature.
Creepy, clever, completely fascinating, Wicked Webs uncovers the hidden science, surprising secrets, and extraordinary survival strategies woven into every strand of silk.
