About This Book
Be careful what you wish for, Oscar! Most snails are quite content being ordinary. Sleeping all day, eating all night, and being the same greenish-greyish-brownish colour as all the other snails. But not Oscar. He wants to be different. He wants to be FAMOUS! And when he meets the Fairy Godsnail, she finally makes his wish come true. But is fame all that it's cracked up to be, or could Oscar be biting off more than he can chew? This heart-warming tale reminds children that you don't need to be famous to be extraordinary.
