The Golden Web

Thomas the spider is perfectly comfortable making his home in a room at the children's hospital. He learns many things from observing the children who come to get well and by watching television, especially TV game shows. When a child leaves, Thomas doesn't mind. His motto is, "Spiders have family, food, and foes." He needs no friends. That is, until the very sick boy, Marco, moves into his room.

When the boy and the spider realize they can talk to each other, Thomas soon has a friend. But does he have the courage to befriend someone who will leave him, one way or another? And will Marco have the courage to bravely fight his serious illness and leave his new best friend behind?

With humor and heart, The Golden Web tells of friendship, courage, and hope. It's the perfect story for those who believe in miracles and know friends can lift you up as you reach for the stars.
