Description
Book SynopsisA young worm, during a typical family dinner, discovers there's a hair in his plate of dirt. He becomes rather upset, not just about his tainted meal but about his entire miserable, wormy life. This, in turn, spurs his father to tell him a story - a story to inspire the children of invertebrates everywhere.
Trade Review"A truly twisted fairy tale that is perfect for teens who enjoy the macabre. In his offbeat and inimitable style, Larson presents a biology through his narrator, an earthworm." — School Library Journal "There's a Hair in My Dirt! is hysterical . . . more entertaining than any science class I remember and the foreword by biologist Edward O. Wilson proves it's legit." — Washington Post "The comic genius, the author of the blackly buoyant and sorely missed Far Side comic strip ... Mr. Larson is among us again, not as a syndicated cartoonist, but as a contemporary fabulist." — New York Times
