Hanson's soft, colorful illustrations draw readers into Escargot's miniature world as Slater's wonderfully silly story is presented through a direct conversation between snail and reader--an incredibly engaging choice . . . Escargot is a treat! --Booklist

Hanson's illustrations are warm and inviting, making Escargot the cuddliest snail ever . . . a fun interactive book that will have readers practicing their own over-the-top French accent. --School Library Journal
