Sammy Spider watches longingly as Josh Shapiro lights another candle and receives another brightly-colored dreidel each night of Hanukkah.

When Josh breaks the rules and plays ball indoors, he finds himself apologizing not only to his parents but to Sammy Spider as well. A Yom Kippur story about saying "I'm sorry".

Sammy Spider watches longingly as the Shapiro family celebrates Passover. He wants to help Josh find the afikomen (hidden matzah), but his mother reminds him, "Spiders don't celebrate Passover. Spiders spin webs." And his first attempt at spinning a new web yields some surprising results.

Sammy watches the Jewish ceremony as the bride and groom stand under the beautiful chuppah, hears the seven wedding blessings, and - phew! - narrowly escapes as the groom's foot breaks the wedding glass. What an adventure!
