Spider Tries by J. Autumn Needles – Episode 1

“Spider Tries”
 A banana spider on its side says, “I tried to dance.”
Spider wags its body and then leaps into the air, flailing and, yelling “Whoaaa!” Spider says, “I tried to leap high.”

Spider continues, “I tried to spin round.” Spider falls down a slope, spinning every which way and thunking the ground and looking dazed.

“I tried on my toes…” Spider moves their legs around, “tip tap tip tap.”

Spider’s legs get twisted up and they fall over with a FLOP! They continue, “And low to the ground.”
