Miss Spider's children help Sawyer the ant herd aphids and collect honeydew, just like real cowbugs, but when Ned and Ted, trying to cut corners to avoid working, steal the aphids, the result is nearly disasterous.

"This book is based on the TV episode 'Giddy Up Bugs,' written by Michael Stokes, from the animated TV series Miss Spider's Sunny Patch Friends on Nick Jr."
