My daughter received this book for her 2nd birthday (in 1998) and could recite it soon after. Unfortunately at some point she spilled something all over it and the pages stuck together and ripped. I had thrown it away and forgotten about it, until the other day when I was watching an old videotape of her, and there she was, saying "Slug was very greedy, he really loved to eat...". This book uses creative vocabulary and simple rhyme to tell a very cute little story. From reading the other reviews of this book, I wonder what kind of marketing genius it would take to get this book reprinted? I WANT IT (and so do other parents!)!!

I am dying! This is the best book ever. My little boy loves it - but he's wearing it out. We found Brain Cell, but can't find the others in the series. If anybody knows where these books are - I will buy about 20 copies of each!

This is a book about a slug that eats anything green. The story is fun, the meter is good, the rhyming is enjoyable. (No, I did not get it for any kid, I bought the book for myself!)

I thought this book was quite clever and fun, not only for my 4 year old daughter, but for me too! We thought "Slug" was a very cute and and quite a "hungry dude'. I am disappointed that the others are not available

My grandson is 3 years old and after reading "Slug" to him 3 or 4 times, he began memorizing it! He can "read" the book to us now! He even refers to himself as a "hungry little dude" at dinnertime. It's absolutely his favorite book! Sure wish we could find the others in the series.

We found this book in a bargain bin for $2.00. My 4yr old daughter enjoys the book immensely. It's a good bedtime book because the story isn't too long or too short. The illustrations are fun, especially the animal drawings on the inside covers - a great way to introduce some new words, such as plankton, amoeba, and duckbilled platypus, that we normally don't come across in kids material. It's too bad the other books in the series (Bat, Spider, Brain Cell) are out of print. We would really like to get those too.

I absolutely adore this book. Slug is so cute and quirky. The pictures are colorful and fun to look at and my son really loves them. I just have to say that I enjoy reading this book to my son because it is funny and just adorable.
