Snail Crossing (Hardcover)
Spring 2020 Kids Indie Next List
“For fans of gentle, sweetly humorous picture books such as Truman and Escargot, Corey Tabor’s Snail Crossing is a charming, clever adventure perfect for reading aloud, lap time, or any time! Snail wants his cabbage, but the journey won’t be direct and it won’t be quick…but then, most things deeply desired are rarely either of those! Delightfully illustrated and wonderfully told, Snail’s story will make you laugh, cheer, and come away assured that kindness does, indeed, win the day.”
— Joy Preble, Brazos Bookstore, Houston, TX
In a book that is as cheerful and charming as Snail himself, Corey Tabor tells a winning tale of slow but steady Snail, whose determination and kindness bring him the best reward of all: friendship.
When Snail spies a plump, crisp cabbage across the road, nothing will stop him—not a speeding car or even a hungry crow.
But then kindhearted Snail stops to help a crew of antsy ants in a rainstorm, and he loses his way. It looks like he will never get his treat—until Snail’s new friends come up with an ingenious idea. . . .
