Snail lived in a bucket, and never would have left if he wasn't unceremoniously dumped out. Snail's friend Ladybug has been urging him all along to explore the rest of the world, so now's the time! There are all kinds of creatures to meet and things to eat in the garden - especially strawberries! This is a bright, fun book, more engaging than many others at this level. Narrative text works in tandem with dialogue in speech bubbles. This story would be perfect for younger students who may be fearful of moving to another school, or advancing to a different grade. Snail was very happy in his familiar pail, but he experienced and learned lots about his area once he left the pail. This story illustrates how a change in scenery can often be a good thing. aucune critique | ajouter une critique

In Snail has lunch, Snail, a blue-shelled creature with long stalks and cartoon eyes, lives in a rusty bucket. He likes it there and refuses to move or explore elsewhere, no matter how much his friend Ladybug tries to coax him out. When the farmer walks off with Snail's rusty bucket, he is forced to explore and finds himself in the wonderful garden Ladybug told him about. Ladybug is there as well and she introduces Snail to new friends, tastes, smells, and ideas. Will Snail find a new home or will he return to his old bucket?
The art is created digitally and is bright, cheerful cartoons. There's not much detail and the simple shapes of the plants, creatures, and farmer are set against a white background. The text is a smaller, lighter font that can sometimes be hard to discern against the bland backgrounds and there are also additional speech bubbles.
I can see why this never took off - it just doesn't have the appeal and layout of Scholastic's Branches series. It's a cute story, but without much substance and the art isn't particularly memorable.
Verdict: If you are in need of more easy chapter books, it's an ok additional purchase and the new bind-ups are available in prebound. However, if you just want some gentle garden stories for young readers, Poppy and Sam by Cathon is a more attractive series.
