The dynamic duo of Snail and Worm returns for an encore performance following last year’s publishing debut. Three short stories composed entirely of dialogue and accompanying art are firmly rooted in humor and friendship, as Snail believes he has grown wings, is convinced Lincoln’s image on a penny is actually a reflection of his own, and yearns for a more special shell. In each case Worm is the perfect foil for Snail’s silliness. Suited to beginning readers as well as picture book audiences, this irrepressible pair of invertebrates offers light- hearted entertainment. (Ages 3-7)

A trio of “cheerfully screwy stories . . . delivers a steady stream of laughs” in this Geisel Honor Winner from the author of the Fox Tails books (Publishers Weekly).
 
In this silly sequel to Snail and Worm, the dynamic duo are back for more fun and giggles in three new comic shorts brimming with quirky humor and unflappable friendship. At turns clever and sweet, these laugh-out-loud stories are perfect for readers coming out of their own shells and making the transition between picture books and chapter books.
 
“Themes of acceptance, self-love, and appreciation make this an excellent choice for early readers or a one-on-one storybook for older prereaders.”—Booklist
“The friends’ banter is light and humorous, and their foibles and misunderstandings will provoke laughter as surely as the expressive, multimedia cartoon illustrations will.”—Kirkus Reviews
