A brand new edition of a classic Dick King-Smith story about a 10-legged spider who gets bullied because she's different. Illustrated by the very popular Russell Ayto.
Emily was like her ninety-nine brothers and sisters, until she won all the eight-legged races at spider sports. People grew suspicious. And then, they counted her legs. She had ten!
It's not her fault, but everyone turns against her. But there's something very special about Emily's legs that will change her life for ever . . .
