Harriet's Hungry Worms by Samantha Smith

Harriet's Hungry Worms by Samantha Smith

This funny, engaging eco story invites young readers to follow the adventures of Harriet's ravenous compost worms as they munch their way through their wide and wonderful weekly menu. Harriet's nine-hundred-and-eighty-three hungry worms live in a shady corner of her backyard in a big, green box. They spend their days munching on anything from Aunt Tilda's herbal teabags to the sports pages of Uncle Sam's paper. Harriet watches and waits, eventually deciding the worms are 'so BORING'. Until one day, the worms leave Harriet a big surprise ... worm wee! Packed with worm facts, Harriet's Hungry Worms is the ideal companion for worm warriors and curious composters keen to roll their sleeves up and put their kitchen food scraps to good use. Continuing the sustainability message, inventive illustrations incorporating recycled materials bloom from each page, breathing beautiful life into this fun-filled story.

Samantha Smith lives in Melbourne with her three junior co-authors, an adopted cat, nine-hundred and ninety-seven compost worms and an impressive pumpkin vine that's slowly taking over the backyard. As a lover of all things green, she completed doctoral research exploring young people's relationship with the environment and how to encourage positive behaviour change. Harriet's Hungry Worms is her first eco picture book, and she's hoping it will inspire young worm warriors to roll up their sleeves and put their food scraps to good use.
