Breathing new life into Mary Howitts 175-year-old warning against those who use sweet words to hide their not-so-sweet intentions, DiTerlizzi draws inspiration from classic black-and-white Hollywood movies like Frankenstein and The Mummy and fills dazzling silver-tinted illustrations in this monstrously entertaining picture book with a dose of humor big enough to quell even the faintest of hearts. nWill you walk into my parlor, n said the Spider to the Fly... n is easily one of the most recognized and quoted first lines in all of English verse. But do you have any idea how the age-old tale of the Spider and the Fly ends? Join celebrated artist Tony DiTerlizzi as he -- drawing inspiration from one of his loves, the classic Hollywood horror movies of the 1920s and 1930s -- shines a cinematic spotlight on Mary Howitts warning, written to her own children about those who use sweet words to hide their not-so-sweet intentions.
