This short audiobook by Nancy Loewen and Rick Peterson, is packed with loads of information about earthworms, and is an ideal story for kids: or older people who are interested in natural things, that can help gardens maintain its health.

As the audiobook explains things about the earthworm’s anatomy. Such as earthworms breathe through their skin as they don’t have lungs. They also don’t have ears, eyes, or teeth and that they require water to stay alive.

Although if an area floods, or a garden receives too much watering the earthworms can drown. As if soils become too, wet we may then see earthworms, make an appearance above the surface as they need to look for somewhere else, to go.
