"My favorite food is pizza."

"My SLP topic I am excited about: Nitty Gritty Garden Fun because I love flowers and plants."

Miss Deborah would like to recommend these SLP-themed books to Dig Into Reading!

Dirt by Steve Tomecek
Recommended for ages 5 to 10

In this book published by National Geographic, “The Dirtmeister” explains all about dirt.  He shows the four types of sediment in soil, the plants and animals that live in soil and the different uses for soil.  In the illustrations, a mole is our guide to all the information about dirt.  An easy experiment to try is shown at the end.  This books is a great introduction to dirt that will appeal to elementary students who want to know about what goes on underground.

I Am a Backhoe by Anna Grossnickle Hines
Recommended for ages 3 to 6

A boy pretends to be several different types of construction vehicles as he plays in this picture book for young children.  The simple pictures illustrate the boy’s imagination as he digs, pushes, dumps and rolls.  His father joins the fun and they end up reading a book about trucks.  This will appeal to children who love trucks and construction vehicles.

Miss Deborah is the Outreach Librarian for Children and Adult Services
