![]() ![]() ![]() The humor is outstanding, a mix between visual gags that will have kids both frustrated and amused (each time Sam and Dave change direction in their digging, it’s JUST shy of uncovering larger and larger treasures) and the dry, droll wit that both Klassen and Barnett are masters of. This one was so strange, so clever, and so unexpected, and we absolutely loved it. They land safely and take a look around, and find themselves in their yard once again – with a few differences. Even splitting up doesn’t help, and the hole only gets deeper and deeper… until suddenly, they are falling, falling, falling. They agree to stop when they find something truly spectacular, but no matter which direction they dig in, they just can’t seem to find anything worth digging up. On Monday, Sam and Dave (with trusty pet dog in tow) decide to dig a hole. Hello, friends! Today’s book is the hilariously strange Sam & Dave Dig A Hole, written by Mac Barnett and illustrated by Jon Klassen, a silly and surreal story about two boys and their quest to find something spectacular. ![]()
