Cover of IN A CAVE by Heather Ferranti Kinser with art by Bonnie Kelso. Title is in black capital letters against a flashlight lit background. Three people are descending a staircase inside a cave, with one holding a flashlight that reveals the inside of the cave.

IN A CAVE by @heatherkinser.bsky.social w/art by @bonniekelso.bsky.social features lyrical text & beautiful illustrations that highlight structures & creatures found in caves & reinforce importance of respecting ecosystems existing in these spaces. Great intro to caves for young readers! #kidlit 📚👍🏻
