A wonderful book about an unsual, enchanting little animal

This book is a favorite at our house. The pictures are beautiful. Really a lovely book featuring lots of wildlife and a soothing lilt to the rhymes. I highly recommend it!

Wonderful for toddlers!

Every time my three-year old son and I go to the library he asks to bring this book home with him. The illustrations provide a realistic yet comforting view of the natural environment making this an excellent introduction to non-fiction books for young children. I'm purchasing Dig Hole, Soft Mole for my son so that other children at our local library can have a chance to take it home and read it!

Beautiful Book

Beautiful, realistic illustrations depicting the habitat of the mole is accompanied by simple, poetic verses. My 21-month old daughter loves it and I think it's a wonderful book with which to teach children about the natural world.
