In this collection of poems, noted children' s poet Jane Yolen takes readers on an expedition underground, exploring everything from animal burrows and human creations, like subways, near the surface-to ancient cities and fossils, lower down-to caves, magma, and Earth' s tectonic plates, deeper still below our feet. At the same time, in Josee Masse' s rich art, a girl and boy, accompanied by several animals, go on a fantastic underground journey. This book contains science, poetry, and an adventure story all rolled into one. But it' s also more than that- In these poems we see that beneath us are the past, present, future-history, truth, and story. This thought-provoking collection will evoke a sense of wonder and awe in readers, as they discover the mysterious world underneath us.
Jane Yolen has been called the Hans Christian Andersen of America and the Aesop of the twentieth century. Her many awards include both the Kerlan Award and the Regina Medal for the body of her work. She lives in Hatfield, Massachusetts, and St. Andrews, Scotland. janeyolen. comJosee Masse is the illustrator of the critically-acclaimed reverso poems by Marilyn Singer (Mirror Mirror, Follow Follow, and Echo Echo) and the Frog and Friends (I Can Read) series by Eve Bunting. She lives in Montreal, Canada. joseemasse. com
