Abigail the Snail is an adorable children's book! This silly story gets a giggle out of my son every time we read it. It is well written with creative and bright illustrations. I would recommend it for anyone with young children. I am looking forward to Abigail's future adventures!

Abigail the Snail is such a wonderful book. My son makes me read it to him over and over again. The illustrations are so bright and colorful. I look forward to more books on Abigail's fun adventures.

I don't know who the geniuses are who thought of this book, but they are amazing. I mean the book is so well written. Oh, and don't even get me started on the illustrations. They are the most amazing pictures ever. I definitely reccomend this book for children, it is an excellent read. I can't wait for more adventures with Abigail, I will surely check them out.

Thank you to the authors of Abigail the Snail. What a great book. I am an elementary school teacher and I love this book. I plan to use Abigail the Snail with my students when I teach them the concepts of rhyming words and phonemic awareness. Learning rhyming words is often a struggle for my kindergarten and 1st grade students. Abigail the Snail gives me a fun new way to teach this difficult topic. The great illustrations in the book will ensure that my second language learners are comprehending the story. I also love that Abigail the Snail is written and illustrated by teachers. How wonderful. I can't wait to buy the next book in the Abigail the Snail series.

My grandchildren just love this book! They like the bright colors and cute illustrations and seem captivated with the story. We have read the book over and over.
We are anxiously awaiting to read about Abigail's next adventure!

My Names Taylor. I was in Mr. Hofers 4th period Math Class. He always talked about these crazy stories and one day he brought up his daughter. The 4th period met Abby once. Shes such a cute kid and my nefews love this book!

Thanks Mr. Hofer

This is a cute story for kids but I was disappointed with the book itself. It was a small paperback (which is fine) but the quality of the pictures and pages inside were not professional looking at all. Some pictures looked as though they were created on Microsoft Paint and printed straight from the computer. I guess I expected more for the price I paid.

My daughter (4 years old) and I had the opportunity to go to a book signing for this book at a local bookstore. The authors and the illustrator were there. Their presentation was very interactive and entertaining! They even brought a large live snail named Abigail for the children to see. For a special momento, they gave out party favors to go along with the book (a purple sock, a letter etc).

Abigail the Snail and the Purple Sock is the first book in the series. The authors told us they are planning to have 12 in all. Even though the book is intended for a younger child (0-3), I still bought it. The rhyming words are big and easy to read. The illustrations are simple and colorful. When my daughter learns to read, this will be a good one to practice with.

This book is overpriced for what you get. At least at $11.98 the cover should be stiffer. A few pages, not much of a story. I was disappointed.

As an elementary school counselor, I have to point out that this is a great book to use to teach the character trait of perseverance. Abigail does not give up...when what she tries does not work, she tries something different and in the end is successful at reaching her goal!
