Escargot

By Dashka Slater

Book Overview

Say Bonjour to the first picture book in the bestselling Escargot series about a cute French snail and his laugh-out-loud adventures.

Escargot is an adorable French snail who only wants two things: 1) To be your favorite animal, and 2) To eat the delicious salad at the end of this book. Except this delicious salad has a carrot in it. And Escargot hates carrots. But when he finally tries one--with a little help from you --he realizes that it's not so bad after all.

From New York Times-bestselling author Dashka Slater and former Pixar animator Sydney Hanson, Escargot is an irresistibly sweet and charming story about a snail who might be a picky eater but definitely wants to be your new best friend. This hilarious and interactive addition to the award-winning Escargot series is the ideal read aloud for story time and animal lovers alike.

Escargot is also available as a board book for babies and toddlers up to 3 years old.

Now I want ALL of her books!

I adore Escargot! There never was a more endearing snail. The illustrations are delightful, and the wording is superb. My 3 and 5-year-old both giggled all the way through, and loved the interactive component. I consider myself quite a connoisseur of children’s literature and THIS book is a keeper!

Adorable!

Such a cute book! Promotes excellent interaction between reader and child and child and text. Adorable character with perfect wording to really bring him to life! And...encourages eating salad..and carrots! Magnifique!
