' This is the tale of a tiny snail and a great bit grey-blue humpback whale. This is the rock, black as soot...and this is the snail with an itchy foot.'
This picture book is written by the Grufflo author Julia Donaldon and illustrater by Axel Scheffler. A little sea snail desperate to see the world writes a message on his little rock home. His friends think he's crazy telling him to stay put. One night a friendly humpback whale swimming by sees the message and takes the snail on the trip around the world through glaciers volcanos storms and sharks. The rhyme and language or the story as well as the beautiful illustrations would captivate your child and be great for children learning to read.
