Written in diary form, this truly hilarious picture book tracks the ins and outs of a worm's life from the perspective of the worm family's young son. Except for the fact that he can't chew gum or have a dog, the boy likes being a worm. He never has to go to the dentist ('No cavities, no teeth, either'), he never gets in trouble for tracking mud through the house, and he never has to take a bath. Students will adore this worm's eye perspective on the world.
