About this deal

Nice artwork - but disappointingly lazy story, which really didn't feel like had been thought through to any extent. Kids will laugh out loud at Norman’s crazy antics as he goes to hilarious lengths to find a shell of his own.

Norman is a slug that wants to be a snail so he can join in with his snail friends as he feels a bit left out. Norman, a bright orange slug tries to find a shell so that he can join the smiling snails in their play. The children love books by Sue Hendra and were interested in Norman The Slug With The Silly Shell as soon as they saw it.We build and maintain all our own systems, but we don’t charge for access, sell user information, or run ads. We understand that not everyone can donate right now, but if you can afford to contribute, we promise it will be put to good use. The story reminded me very much of the No-Bot stories and has a similar storyline to other books of this authors but it is still fun to read and I'm sure the children will request it again many times. Then a bird was going to attack the snails and Norman, but the bird actually preferred the donut instead of Norman!

With similarly bold illustration, eye-catching cover and simple text [as Barry the Fish with Fingers] this has the potential to be another hit. All in all, Norman: The Slug With The Silly Shell is a wonderfully silly children's book that lightly touches on conformity, being accepted, and finding one's talent – if one looks really closely. With all of the fun, it does pull kids into thought without them ever realizing it, and might inspire them to adopt a slug of their own. In 2006 she met Paul Linnet and could instantly see that she'd met a fellow nitwit who liked talking nonsense.My thoughts: I don't think I've reminded anyone--this week at least--that reading picture books is super subjective. Norman: The Slug With The Silly Shell is a children's picture book written and illustrated by Sue Hendra, which centers on a slug with shell envy finds a worthy surrogate and then something even better. He studied Graphic Design at Derby University, and later moved back to Brighton where he met Sue Hendra. Paul Linnet was born in Brighton and grew up in the Midlands, reading Tintin and playing classic 80s video games, before becoming obsessed with scribbling, writing, guitars and motorcycles.
