All the animals are rushing to get aboard Noah's Ark. But the slow, slow, one-toe, gently-does-it, come-and-go, slip-sliding, slithery snail knows that Noah won't sail without him... This simple picture book with its bouncy rhyming text will delight pre-schoolers and help encourage their language development. Bright, contemporary artwork perfectly complements the text and adds to the fun. Part of the new 'Ladybird I'm Ready to Read' series, it is perfect for reading aloud and sharing with young children.
