Critics Review
‘[A] breath of fresh air. Full-page illustrations, bursting with life and color, show the smiling worms as part of a thriving ecosystem. Using very simple, upbeat language, rhyming couplets describe the basics of a worm’s role as a decomposer, soil aerator, and food source for birds.’ – Booklist
‘Toni D’Alia’s gentle, rhythmic text, makes it ideal for reading aloud. Mimi Purnell’s bright digital illustrations bring a joyfulness to each page. The facts about worms at the end, entices the curious reader to discover more about earthworms. Worms Are Our Friends is a joyous picture book that pre-schoolers and young readers will enjoy.’ –Children’s Book Council of Australia (CBCA) Reading Time
