Synopsis

Drip! Drop! Splatter! Splash! Rain falls and soil turns into slippy, sloppy, sludgy mud. Around the world, animals of all sizes seek mud to help them survive and thrive in every season and every stage of life. From blocking the sun’s harsh rays and painful parasites, to building homes, soothing upset stomachs, and even having fun, it’s Mud...to the Rescue! Join elephants, alligators, beavers, birds, pigs, and many more creatures as they find helpful—and sometimes unusual—uses for nature’s squishy, squelchy soil...MUD!
