Wonderfully illustrated with black and white drawings, this book offers a vast amount of information on earthworms, all written at the level a young person will understand. It covers the anatomy, both outer and inner, of the earthworm, various environments, senses of the worms, digestion, food, castings and their importance, benefits they provide us, and the entire life cycle of the earthworm. The book also includes various projects which can be performed, simply and at home, and gives a great step-by-step account of how to raise your own worms, or, in other words, how to start your own worm farm!

This book is the sequel to Cheaper by the Dozen, the story of the Gilbreth family. It is co-authored by two of the eleven children, Frank, Jr. and Ernestine. Their father was a time management expert and used his skills for the efficient, and often funny, ways of running a house full of thirteen distinct individuals. In 1924 he passed and his wife Lillian became the primary breadwinner. This is the story of how she managed the business and guiding her children individually through adolescence. She became one of the foremost management engineers in the world.
