Diggers: The Second Bromeliad Adventure - A Satirical Story About Tiny Nomes' Flight and Survival for Children (Ages 8-12) (Bromeliad Trilogy Book 2)

<p>In a world whose seasons are defined by Christmas sales and Spring Fashions, hundreds of tiny nomes live in the corners and crannies of a human-run department store. They have made their homes beneath the floorboards for generations and no longer remember—or even believe in—life beyond the Store walls.</p><p>Until the day a small band of nomes arrives at the Store from the Outside. Led by a young nome named Masklin, the Outsiders carry a mysterious black box (called the Thing), and they deliver devastating news: In twenty-one days, the Store will be destroyed.</p><p>Now all the nomes must learn to work together, and they must learn to think—and to think BIG. </p><p>Part satire, part parable, and part adventure story par excellence, master storyteller Terry Pratchett's second title in the engaging Bromeliad trilogy traces the nomes' flight and search for safety, a search that leads them to discover their own astonishing origins and takes them beyond their wildest dreams. </p>
