Walter is a snail who is tired of living amongst the leaves. He wants to move fast explore high, explore far, and explore different places. That is not what snails do, but with the right type of friends they can. We follow Walter on his adventure and realizing that there is a need for a home, and sometimes you need to go back. This story has been done many times before but what sets this one separate from others are the amazingly wonderful and fun illustrations. Happy Yak books has been able to take more mundane in stories and make them something that kids are going to want to read over and over and over again.
