Spiderweb for Two: A Melendy Maze is a children's novel written and illustrated by Elizabeth Enright and published by Rinehart in 1951. It is the last of four books in the Melendy family series which she inaugurated in 1941. It tells the story of the two youngest among five children after they alone remain at the family's "four-story mistake" house in the country.
The first three novels, published from 1941 to 1944, had been reissued by Rinehart in a 1947 omnibus edition entitled The Melendy Family.[2]
