Okay, Miss. Bad Bad Bad. Are you kidding? This book is Good Good Good. Here's why:

It is the passive adventure of three cave creatures when an explorer treks down into their world one day. It touches on how the three cave creatures move about amongst the darkness and how strange it might have been to see the light of a spelunker.

Recommended for schools and libraries, and as part of a cave exploring lesson in classrooms.
