Look What's Under Your Feet: Soil begins: "Everywhere you go, there is soil under your feet" and it concludes: "Look what's under your feet and walk carefully. Everything under your feet is at work." The children in the illustrations play outside digging for worms for a fishing trip or catching butterflies, while the book invites it's readers to discover the underground life that most have never explored. Soil isn't brown, dead stuff. More things live in the soil than live above, but most of them are too small to be seen. The text explains how soil is made and the illustrations show the surprising variety of creatures, seen and unseen, that live in the soil under your feet.
