A timely and relatable tale about the importance of connecting to the introvert inside.
"Full of endearing characters and a charming storyline, this is a heartwarming tale of friendship, solitude and embracing our identity". -- Small Wonder Books
''Hanaor's thoughtful words with Kourtoglou's gentle yet quirky illustrations (do snails even have eye-lashes?!) make this an evocative and timeless new picture book''. -- The Literacy Tree
Marjorie is a happy snail. She loves her family and friends, but sometimes she just needs a bit of alone time. At these moments, Marjorie wanders off to try to find a quiet space, but her friends and family just follow her trail of slime and find her.
A natural follow on from the critically acclaimed 'Pocket Chaotic', this simple, layered story is exquisitely brought to life by Christos Kourtoglou, an emerging Greek illustrator with a distinctive watercolour style. It addresses the disjunction that kids and adults feel (particularly in a post-lockdown era) between our introvert and extrovert selves.
