Two slugs travel happily together as brothers, until they meet a crow who shows them that they have no home. Ashamed, one of the slugs decides to make himself a home, and calls himself snail. The brothers grow apart and become suspicious of each other. The slug with no shell-house feels ashamed until he learns to see that the very road he travels is his home, and so he shall never be homeless. The happy slug no longer sees himself through the judging eyes of others, but proudly asserts his place in the world and the two brothers travel happily together once more. 650 0 $a Brothers $v Juvenile fiction. 650 0 $a Slugs (Mollusks) $v Juvenile fiction 650 0 $a Picture books for children. 650 1 $a Brothers $v Fiction. 650 1 $a Slugs (Mollusks) $v Fiction 650 1 $a Picture books. 700 1 $a Anima, Olya, $e illustrator. 941 $a 1 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20240509012834.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=9277B5D20DC911EF973F313347ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
