    Look at the pictures in the very front and back of the book. Use the pictures to answer the following question. Worm's family went on vacation to:

    • The playground.

    • A compost pile.

    • A garden.

    • Spider's house.

    Correct Answer
    A. A compost pile.
    Explanation
    The correct answer is a compost pile. This can be inferred from the fact that the question asks to use the pictures in the book to answer the question. Since the question mentions Worm's family, it can be assumed that the pictures would show Worm and his family on their vacation. A compost pile would be a logical place for worms to go on vacation, as it provides a suitable habitat for them. The other options, such as the playground, garden, and spider's house, would not be suitable vacation spots for worms.
