Chapter Book Chips "Felix Takes The Stage" (The Deadlies) by Kathryn Lasky

Meet the Deadlies, a delightful family of four. There is Edith, the mother and her three children, Julep, Jo Bell and Felix. They live in the basement of the philharmonic hall. Felix has a love of music and especially enjoys having his web in this spot. Did I forget to mention that the Deadlies are a family of brown recluse spiders? They are very friendly but deeply misunderstood as they are incredibly toxic to people. One night, Felix decides to meet the maestro who conducts the orchestra at the philharmonic. The poor man faints at the sight of Felix and that spells the end of the Deadlies time in the basement. They must pack up and move before the "E" men (exterminators)arrive. Their next stop is an antique store but their adventures don't end there. Along with their devoted feline friend, Fatty, the Deadlies search for the "Place Where Time Has Stopped" and a home they can finally settle in. Come join them in their travels. -gw-
