All day a snail stays tucked up in its shell in a cool, damp hiding place. But when night-time comes, the hungry little minibeast emerges to forage for juicy plants to eat. Using stunning, detailed photographs and carefully levelled text, this book shows a 24 hour period in the life of this fascinating little animal. Why does a snail hide during the daytime? How does it slide from place to place? Does it really have a tongue covered with thousands of tiny teeth? And how will it stay safe from a hungry toad that’s on the hunt for snails?
Ruth Owen has written more than 400 children's books. She writes on many subjects but her favourite topics are science and nature to research and make accessible for young readers.
