A beautifully illustrated story that gently reminds us that home is where the heart is, while thoughtfully acknowledging the struggles of those without one.

A stunningly illustrated book & beautiful story about Sammie the slug who is looking for his own home and a place to belong. It is a children’s book that touches on homelessness & the value of kindness in the world. It is sure to warm yours and your children’s hearts.
