This latest Spid the Spider adventure, Spid the Spider Grows a Magic Money Tree, takes young readers on a captivating journey of missteps, discovery, and growth. Aimed at children aged 4-10, this story is not only an entertaining escapade but also a timely tale that echoes modern discussions about fiscal responsibility and the illusion of “money trees”.
When Spid receives magic seeds from his friend Marvin the Mole, he dreams of untold riches. Yet, despite his tireless efforts to nurture the seeds, things go hilariously awry. Along the way, an old man’s forewarning about greed lingers in Spid’s mind, and he ultimately learns the value of appreciating what he already has. Inspired by a classic English fairy tale, this adventure blends humour, music, and a moral lesson for young readers.
This story features two original songs, ‘Money Doesn’t Grow on Trees’ and ‘Seed Greed’. Music videos for the songs are accessible through QR codes in the book:
‘Money Doesn’t Grow on Trees’: A lively mix of rock and roll and jazz piano, designed as a singalong hit for all ages.
‘Seed Greed’: A reflective ballad with a strong message about the pitfalls of greed.
