This was quite a good book, it has a good hidden story underlying too and hopefully if it is read by enough children the message will get through as the number of child grooming cases needs to be drastically reduced - this not only has a good moral to the story, it shows just how dangerous the world wide web can be.

As I see more and more children with their own Iphones, laptops, I-pads etc. I worry about their safety. They tend to be just a little too trusting.
This story is told in a fun and interesting way for children but with a serious message about child predators on the internet. Amnica, a young witch, plays on a gaming site where she "meets" several others. She meets a spider that seems really interesting to her. When she sets up a meeting with him, she does not tell her mother. Fortunately she has a pet bat with her to help her out. When her mom realizes she is missing and checks out her computer, she calls the police. This ends happily, but sends the message about safety.
I think this would be a great book to be in school and classroom libraries as a source to reinforce safety on the internet.

I read this book with my daughter and she really enjoyed it - she thought the pictures and rhyming were great so I'd recommend it to other parents
That was a good book, a good story and behind of it, a hidden story underlying.
Hopefully enough children will have the chance to read the book and if they pay the needed attention they will get the message. They will get just how dangerous the world wide web can be if we are not careful. If we dont pay attention. If we abuse his use!

Annica is playing an online game that has chat rooms. She is befriended by a person/spider in the game room. She decides to meet her new friend without telling anyone. Will Annica's parents find out what she is up to?
An excellent story to introduce children to the bad characters on the Internet. It gives parents an opportunity to discuss the dangers that can be found on the Internet. The fantastic colors of the illustrations make it a fun book to read about a very serious problem. A must buy and read for parents and anyone who works with children.

The world is a scarier place than when I grew up. This book helps parents explain dangers that they themselves never had to face.

A good book on being careful on social media. Because it's done as a cartoon, it's not as frightening as it could have been, but it definitely gets the message across. I'm starting to really like this series.

A very unique way to explain some internet dangers to kids. The characters are relatable and the point comes across very clearly.
