Silliness is in style! In this issue of SPIDER, students get a surprise when the principal insists they wear goofy hats. A girl expresses herself through an outrageous outfit. A boy who can’t sew lands a job with a tailor. The silliness sky is the limit!

Just in time for April Fool’s Day, there’s lots of wacky adventures in the pages of this issue of SPIDER. Join siblings Doodlebug and Dandelion as they navigate a bizarre new school dress code. Pull a clever but harmless April Fool’s Day prank on your friends, then learn how to avoid getting fooled by animal optical illusions! Watch out for “eye spots,” patterns that look like eyes on the fur, skin, or scales of animals from all over the world. Pick out the perfect outfit for Picture Day, or get extra-zany with a sweater made of bumblebees!
This issue of SPIDER is packed with interactive fun! Make your own friendship bracelets to share with friends and family. Or, if you don’t have any friends nearby, you can always make your own… out of a creatively dressed potato! Test your wits with Ophelia’s Practical Jokers word search, match the punchline to the knock-knock joke, and so much more. This issue of SPIDER is fun for everyone—and that’s no joke!
