Nigel the Spider

Nigel the spider is a colourful character who lives in a shed and loves life to the fullest. One day Nigel suffers a painful incident with a fellow shed inhabitant but seems to survive, albeit battle-scarred. After waiting for sunshine, Nigel ventures into the garden seeking adventure. It soon unfolds as he revels in surrounding beauty and joyous affection from fellow creatures. However, Nigel learns not all are happy and friendly when he meets a nasty garden resident. His adventures prove bittersweet, but will he live to tell the tale?

While delighting children, this zany humour also entertains adults.
