A follow-up to OVER AND UNDER THE SNOW that explores the hidden world and many lives of a garden through the course of a year, now in paperback. Up in the garden, the world is full of green--leaves and sprouts, growing vegetables, ripening fruit. But down in the dirt there is a busy world of earthworms digging, snakes hunting, skunks burrowing, and all the other animals that make a garden their home. In this exuberant and lyrical book, discover the wonders that lie hidden between stalks, under the shade of leaves ...and down in the dirt.
