Who Stole My House?

32 pp. | North-South | April, 2007 | Trade ISBN 978-0-7358-2122-4 $15.95
(4) K-3 Translated by Marianne Martens. Illustrated by Anna Laura Cantone. Snail slips out of her shell to take a bath. When she's done--and the shell is missing--she's sure it's been stolen. Snail interrogates everyone, and each animal defensively showcases its own unique home. Finally Snail happily discovers her shell right where she left it. The text's repetition gets a little grating, but the loose, colorful illustrations highlight the tale's silliness.
