Groundhog Day is an under celebrated holiday that we should all take more notice to and one way to do that is to introduce some Groundhog Day books to kids. Who doesn’t want to see that cute little groundhog come out of the dirt to see if he sees his shadow?
These books will help teach children more about why we celebrate the holiday on February 2nd, how we celebrate the holiday, and what happens when the groundhog sees his shadow.
Groundhogs are solitary creatures that dig burrows to live in. They are only found in North America.
Groundhogs are mostly herbivores but will also eat insects. They like to eat lettuce, clover, dandelions, bark and fruit like berries and apples. But they will also eat grubs, snails and grasshoppers.

It’s almost the big day but Groundhog hasn’t felt well and now they are on the hunt for a substitute groundhog so that Groundhog’s Day is not canceled.
I hope you were able to find a fun Groundhog day book to read with your kids this winter and whether your local groundhog saw their shadow or not, you still get to cuddle up to read together.
