Little Snail Goes House-Hunting
Little Snail Goes House Hunting is a warm and funny picture book that follows a little snail on her quest to find a new and unusual house.
Little Snail Goes House-Hunting by Bia Melo is a delightful tale about Little Snail, who adores her big snail family but sometimes feels different from them. She yearns for something more exciting—a new house. A house that's interesting, fun, and unusual—just like her.
Join Little Snail on her thoughtful and amusing quest to find a new home. She experiments with a hilarious array of unexpected abodes, completely unlike a typical snail shell. From hanging upside down with bats, which turns out to be a little uncomfortable, to exploring a busy burrow packed with an abundance of rabbit roommates, Little Snail's adventures are sure to entertain.
Children will be captivated by Bia Melo's beautiful, vibrant illustrations and the quirky, bright personality of Little Snail. Will she find her perfect home? Perhaps it's closer than she thinks...
