Diary of a Worm: 10/17/07

Diary of a Worm

Diary of a Worm is by the author of Click Clack Moo and is a book Sean has had since he was an infant. We recently reorganized his bookshelf and rediscovered this gem among his library.

The Diary of a Worm chronicles the life and times of a young earth worm who is in school. Like most school kids he has tons of homework, has dreams of what he wants to be when he grows up, makes art projects in school and so forth. All these things would be pretty mundane except that he's a worm.

The humor of the situation comes in the illustrations by Harry Bliss. He brings home the punchline with things like the macaroni necklace that is just one noodle, sleeves on costumes when worms don't have arms, and so forth.
