Book Reviews of The Snail and the Whale
Book Review: similar to another (better) book
Summary: 3 Stars
This book is OK but I can't help thinking that the author was influenced by another book, "Amos and Boris", which is a much more sophisticated and eloquent book. This book is probably better for younger kids who are not quite ready for a richer writing style.
Summary of The Snail and the Whale
This is the tale of a tiny snail and a great big whale. The snail may be small, but she has huge dreams of seeing the world. So she hitches a ride on a friendly whale's back to see amazing sights. Icebergs and volcanoes, storms and sharks-the two friends see it all together. And when the whale runs into trouble, the snail proves that even the tiniest creature can help a friend in a very big way. The creators of The Gruffalo and Room on the Broom have teamed up again to bring you this whale of a tale.General Books
