Description

Spend 24 hours with a hungry snail as it emerges from its daytime hiding place to forage for food and find a mate. But can the snail avoid becoming a meal for a hungry toad? Packed with science vocabulary and beautiful photographs, readers will discover all about the nocturnal lives of these amazing critters and find answers to question such as: Why do snails spend the day tucked up in their shells in cool, hiding places? How do snails slide from place to place? What do snails use to munch on juicy leaves and other parts of plants? What happens when a pair of snails meet up to mate and produce eggs? Snails are truly fascinating creatures, and young readers will love the weird and wonderful snail facts in this carefully leveled nonfiction book.
