PreSchool-K-Almost everyone loves to dig for treasure, and when Mole gets his new shovel, he starts immediately. He finds a twig, a shell, and an acorn, and it turns out that these things are indeed treasures for Bird, Snail, and Squirrel. But the best one from Mole's point of view appears when he meets up with the tunnel of another mole and makes a new friend. Told with minimal text, this book celebrates friendship while quietly calling attention to the fact that treasure is relative. The simple, rounded cartoon illustrations painted in ice-cream colors with thick, black outlines give the story a very sugary but gentle feel. A supplemental purchase for libraries needing more read-alouds for the youngest audiences.-Julie Roach, Cambridge Public Library, MA
