""How I long to sail!"" said the tiny snail.

The Snail and the Whale is a delightful tale of adventure and friendship by the unparalleled partnership of Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler, creators of The Gruffalo.

One little snail longs to see the world and hitches a lift on the tail of an enormous whale. Together they go on an amazing journey, past icebergs and volcanoes, sharks and penguins, and the little snail feels so small in the vastness of the world. But when disaster strikes and the whale is beached in a bay, it’s the tiny snail’s big plan that saves the day!

I enjoyed the adventure and the snail saving the whale. I would recommend it to 3-5 year olds but any age would enjoy it.

I liked the big blue whale which is the biggest mammal in the world. My favourite part was when the class was laughing because there was a snail writing a message on the board behind the teachers back.
