A sweetly humorous picture book about composting, told from the point of view of a worm.

A sweetly humorous picture book about composting, told from the point of view of a worm.

Meet Worm. He might be little. He might have no hands. But Worm would love to make a sandwich, just for you!

To get started he'll need just one thing- garbage! Delicious, delectable garbage like apple cores and mushy grapes, broccoli bottoms and carrot tops, sad celery, and drippy cucumbers. Worm and his friends eat the garbage. And then they do what everyone does after they eat garbage. They poop! The poop goes in the compost and the compost goes in your garden, which is where the vegetables for your sandwich come from!

Simple, right? Worm thought you'd agree. He might just need a bit of assistance along the way . . .

This hilarious, engaging picture book is the perfect introduction to the process of composting from start to finish, told from the perspective of one little worm who is very eager to help.

Reviews for Worm Makes a Sandwich

Praise for Worm Makes a Sandwich: ""With self-deprecating charm, Worm describes the nuts and bolts of composting . . . Farley’s humorous illustrations include spot art, underground cutaways filled with comical, garbage-eating critters (who occasionally offer commentary), labels for various items, and magnified images of microbes and soil. A funny and clever process story."" —Kirkus Reviews
