The Snail and the Whale is the latest addition to our bookshelf. As usual Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler have come up with the goods and produced yet another great story with fabulous illustrations. The Snail and the Whale is the sweet tale of two very different creatures that use their individual strengths to help each other. The whale helps the little snail to travel around and see the world and the snail is happy to help free the whale who was laying beached due to the low tide. A refreshing story told in the usual style with easy to remember rhymes and great drawings for younger children.  You can buy this book and many others from our online store.
