Review

This book is a series of poems about what is under the house, the city, and the ground. Through various poetic forms, readers will meet moles, bugs, and rabbits and see and learn about roots, volcanoes, subways, and buried treasure. Perhaps the best part of the book is the wonderful illustrations which show in great detail all that happens in a place usually not seen. A fun book for children to look at and from which to learn.

Overall Book Score: good
