For The Love of Dirt by Jill Dukek

I found this new-to-me author not long ago, while grocery shopping.  I love supporting Indie Authors, so, even though I don't have little people in my life, I bought a copy to read for myself.  Sometimes, it is comforting to lose the stress of the day in a children's story.

I found this to be a delightful book.  Written for pre-school age children, it tells a fantastic story of exuberant children and how they equate love to the fun things in their lives, like dirt and water.  This is a wonderful story perfect for instilling family values and reminding us that playing outdoors can be super-fun.

The illustrations, by Megan Mack, were light, airy, and whimsical.  They added much to he story, and shared a bit of gentle humor.

​As I mentioned, I don't have little people in my life right now.  But, I'll donate this book to my Local Little free Library.  I'm sure the child who discovers it will enjoy the story.
