Bedtime Story: The Snail and the Whale by Julia Donaldson


Read for: Children's Book Challenge & We love her books!



Synopsis: "A snail longs to see the world and hitches a lift on a whale's tail. Together they go on an amazing journey, past icebergs and volcanoes, sharks and penguins, and the snail feels very small in the vastness of the world. But when the whale is beached in a bay, it's the tiny snail who saves the day."

My Review: We love every book by Julia Donaldson that we have read and of course had to pick this one up when we saw it. The rhythm and rhyme of this story is great, the story just flows off the tongue when read out loud. It is also a fun book about helping each other out no matter how big or small. I reminds me a bit of Charlotte's Web but for a younger audience. This one will definitely be re-read often!

My Rating: We really enjoyed this one, it has a great message behind the story and like always has such great rhymes and rhythm that it just rolls off the tongue.  We give it a rating of Four Paws and a Stump Wag!



Good Night! Sweet Dreams!
