Book Description
Unearth the glorious mysteries that lie beneath our feet with 15 fun and fact-filled poems about soil--what it is, how it's made, and who lives in it! A New York Public Library Best Book of the Year Named to the Texas Bluebonnet Master List Spectacular vertical panoramas illustrating life underground accompany 15 funny, fascinating poems that explore dirt and the many creatures that make their homes underground. Spiders, earthworms, ants, chipmunks and more crawl across the pages, between stretching roots and buried stones. Chipmunk, for such a little squirt you sure do move a lot of dirt, you sure do dig your tunnels deep, you sure do find some nuts to keep, you sure do know your underground. Chipmunk, you sure do get around. This unique celebration of dirt-- what makes it, what lives in it, and the many wonderful things the soil does to support life on our planet-- is a whimsical, cleverly-illustrated pick for kids who love animals... or who just love playing in the mud. From the creators of And the Bullfrogs Sing, a Bank Street Best Book of the Year, this intriguing, uniquely charming nature book has been vetted by experts and includes an author's note with more information about all the featured creatures, as well as a bibliography.

Book Description
There are times in life we face things not of our own doing or choosing.We are at the mercy of our own feelings. We look at things and still can't see what lies beyond. Sometimes those who are blind have the greater vision. The can touch what we don't perceive. They hear what others can't. Most people who are blind do not become the cynic, rather the acceptor of the spirit. To them rain is thirst. To them the ground they walk on is their foundation. They seek rather than retreat. They question life's hypocrisies. They are the true believers. While some turn their back on the truth, they welcome it. They show a strength that we cannot fathom. Meet Debra Lee Diggins, she is all of this and more. Join her on her journey-take her hand and walk with her.Sometimes the Bullfrogs Sing is a story of a young girl's transcendence from girl-child to womanhood. It is also the story of Thaddeus Morgan, a troubled black man who has been on the run most of his adult life. From the time they meet each other, a bond is formed that will last a lifetime. Debra has a unique gift, even though blind, she is able to reach inside of people. She brings out the best in him and shows him how to trust again and, yes, believe there truly is a good side of life. They guide each other through personal tragedy and prove the total hypocrisy of racism. To Debra, you are how you represent yourself. To her, you are every man, every woman, every child. This story is about the true triumph of the spirit. Join her on her journey from the town of Viola, Alabama, to the city of Farley, Illinois, where an adult woman and an attorney fight for a young wife on trial for a capital crime.A scene from Sometimes the Bullfrogs SingThe setting, where Debra, her Aunt Lucy, Thaddeus, his girlfriend Geneva, and Debra's friend Nancy are all sitting on a blanket down by the creek."Why do the bullfrogs make that sound?" Debra asked.Geneva stood up and pointed in the direction of the sounds that they were making. She replied in a soft, seductive voice, "That's them singing, singing to each other. The women singing to their menfolk, come on over, get to know me. Once you meet me, we're gonna get along real good."Debra replied, "Bullfrogs can't sing."Geneva turned to Debra. "Yes, they do, honey. You just have to listen the right way. Everyone in life, all God's creatures, needs someone special to spend good times with, so you can put the bad ones behind. Times so bad you get knocked down and don't want to get up."
