The Snail and the Whale

A bold little snail longs to see the world, so he hitches a lift on the tail of a whale. Together they voyage past icebergs and volcanoes, sharks and penguins, corals and caves. The little snail feels tiny in the vastness of the world. But when disaster strikes and the whale is beached in a bay, it’s the tiny snail who saves the day… This rhyming story full of captivating landscapes brings alive the joy of exploration, and delivers a powerful environmental message. Ideal for sharing and reading out loud, it’s a book to treasure… and to enjoy again and again.
