Do you like mixed-up fairy tales with grotty bits thrown in? Then this is the book for you. 

Jack loves creepy crawlies and has a special spider, called Webster. Jack lives with his Aunt Grimewiper, who hates insects and creepy crawlies and likes to swipe them with her duster.
What happens when Jack swaps Webster for an egg? Will the egg be suitable for his Aunt’s tea or are there more spiders about to come into the story?
