Sam & Dave Dig a Hole by Mac Barnett

4.0

Of the MANY children's books I read for my children's lit class this was one of my favorites. This book is a great example of how illustrations can transform a book. The text is fairly simple, two boys decide to dig a hole to find something spectacular. They dig many different directions but it isn't until their pet dog digs a bit further to get a bone that something "spectacular" happens. They fall out of their hole. Simple enough. Now go look at the book and see what story the pictures tell.
