It really bugs Smug that he’s a slug. So much so, it makes him grumpy. Everyday, the bugs would say, “Good day!” And everyday, Smug would say, “No way! As long as I’m a slug, it’s not a good day!” Then he’d spin around and slink away. “You’re no fun,” the bugs yelled at Smug. “We’d rather be friends with a stink bug!”

And so begins this screwy, gooey tale of “an ugly slug” who decides to become a snail. All he needs is a shell. Surprises and mishaps occur with each new shell Smug tries, until he finds the perfect shell and also something he wasn’t expecting. Fully illustrated with whimsical rhyming, this book is perfect for young readers.
