The Snail and the Whale is a delightful tale of adventure and friendship by the unparalleled picture book partnership of Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler, creators of The Gruffalo.

One little snail longs to see the world and hitches a lift on the tail of an enormous whale. Together they go on an amazing journey, past icebergs and volcanoes, sharks and penguins, and the little snail feels so small in the vastness of the world. But when disaster strikes and the whale is beached in a bay, its the tiny snails big plan that saves the day!

Perfect for classroom use, The Snail and the Whale Big Book is a whale-sized edition of The Snail and the Whale, and includes activity ideas, and words and music for the Snail and the Whale Song.
