Denise Fleming does it again creating colorfully illustrated depictions of life underground. This book is good for showing students about the many different types of life that live underground and would give students many opportunities to ask questions about the different kind of animals.

From Bugs to burrowing bunnies, this book describes the different types of creatures that you might find underground and what they are doing there. Fun and colorful illustrations

My 2.5-year-old LOVES this book. There is so much to see and talk about on every page and he has such a blast pointing out every animal and vegetable and insect! Great fun, and gives kids a peek into what's going on beneath their feet. ( )

This beautiful nonfiction picture book presents, through rhythmic, rhyming text and colorful pulp paintings, a description of the world under our feet, including nests, tunnels, insects, moles, stones, roots and even a lost key. As readers, we are taken on a journey into the ground to see what happens there, and for whom the earth beneath our feet is home. Throughout, a young boy plants and waters a new cherry tree. The final pages include an index identifying the creatures presented in the illustrations and text.
