Tadpole is forced underground into a karst aquifer, arriving in a mysterious and magical new place. Here, Tadpole meets an iridescent fish with no eyes, the Mexican Blindcat. Blindcat agrees to guide Tadpole home and introduces him to the magical cave habitat that quietly exists under Tadpole’s pond. Tadpole discovers there is an entire unknown world beneath his home! Blindcat relies on his other senses to navigate the twists and turns of the cave. Tadpole models Blindcat’s movement, gaining confidence as they continue the dangerous journey. We follow along as Tadpole learns about this underground environment and how it is impacted from runoff water and dangers from above.
