Are You a Snail?

32 pp. | Kingfisher | April, 2000 | Trade ISBN 0-7534-5242-1 $$9.95
(4) PS Backyard Books series. Illustrated by Tudor Humphries. Speaking directly and simply to preschoolers, these books spin off from the title questions to discuss the life cycles of snails and ladybugs from their hatching to maturity. Both books conclude with unnecessary, tongue-in-cheek explanations of how a human child is different from a ladybug or a snail. Detailed illustrations give close-up views. More facts are included in a "Did You Know" section at the end of each book.
