The Spiders Meet the Children
Kathleen Brownyard (Author) · Manhattan Publishing House · Paperback
What if the creatures we fear... are the ones trying to protect us?
Deep within the hidden swamplands of Jefferson County, a secret world exists, one that humans were never meant to see.
A world of Protectors.
Hoppie and Shawnee are unlike anything you've ever imagined, part spider, part guardian, and bound by one unbreakable rule:
���� Humans are off-limits.
But after secretly watching two human children show kindness and compassion, they begin to question everything they've been taught.
Are all humans truly dangerous?
Or is fear simply born from misunderstanding?
As summer arrives, two worlds begin to collide:
���� Curious children longing for adventure
����️ Hidden protectors risking everything to be seen
⚖️ A fragile line between fear... and friendship
What follows is a powerful journey of courage, curiosity, and connection, where breaking the rules might be the only way to discover the truth.
