Question by Me: What was that fiction book about the kids living underground??
Maybe it wasn’t ‘only’ kids, but it was an intricate society in the sewage system of New York or something like that. They wore their watches around their ankles because “time is of little importance”. Then something happened and their way of living was being threatened. I don’t really remember a lot of details, but it was a great book that i read in middle school.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

The house he bases his point-by-point guide on is indeed a showplace. Its homey touches are just that, though, and Roy’s main concern is creating such a house, from drawing up the plans to surveying the site to the actual building. Roy’s instruction is insightful and comprehensive….Throughout, he covers construction and installation details tha

Question by featherflower19: What is the book about a boy living underground with animals?
Years and years back, I read a book where a little boy runs away from his family and lives with animals in an underground burrow. I can’t remember if it was raccoons or groundhogs or what, but it was about him learning to live with them and avoiding being found by humans because he doesn’t want to go back home.
Any ideas on the book title would be greatly appreciated. I really want to find this book again!

The Earth-Sheltered House: An Architect’s Sketchbook (Real Goods Solar Living Book)

The striking common sense of the author’s perspective on design and the building process is based on millennia of use of earth-sheltered homes by animals and humans, using the earth to warm in winter and cool in summer. A cartoon on the book jacket summarizes Wells’s perspective. One panel is called “20th Century,” and has four steps of traditional building: love nature, kill it, build building, plant grass. The second panel, called “21st Century,” says: love nature, leave it alone, find
