Torben Kulhmann's stunningly illustrated, nearly wordless tale offers a fascinating window into an imaginary, yet hauntingly familiar word under our feet, where a mole suddenly recognises the precarious balance between progress and preservation. But is it too late
[Younger readers]...will be transfixed by the gracefully drafted and soberly colored paintings of the moles, their intricately engineered machines, and their exhausted, poorly-lit world.-- "Publishers Weekly"
Explicit in its message. Subtle in its presentation. In short, a beaut.--Elizabeth Bird "A Fuse #8 Production, School Library Journal"
Kuhlmann's detailed art will pull in readers who like to see how things fit together...-- "Kirkus Reviews"
