EdMaze said: Ruth Krauss is one of the great children's literature writers and one of Sendak's excellent mentors, it's hard not to love her. "A Hole Is To Dig" strikes me in the freedom it gives children to choose how they manipulate objects, ideas, and the outside world. A hole does not have one purpose, but many. While the book might have been originally formatted as a vocabulary enhancer the deeper meaning of the book lies in building individual children with creative minds.
