Pip and the Garden Snail: How Patience Grows

Aeva has lost her favorite little silver bell - it slipped from her hand and vanished deep in the tall grass. Pip is sure he can find it, because he is fast! He zooms and swoops and searches the whole garden as quick as his wings can carry him... and finds nothing but a dizzy tumble into the moss. Then a garden snail - calm, glossy, and in no hurry at all - shares a gentle secret: when you rush, the whole world turns to a blur; but when you slow down, tuck your wings, and really look and listen, the garden opens up like a hidden world, and the little thing you were searching for is right there, waiting.Pip and the Garden Snail is the eighth book in Aeva's Little Wonders - a series of gentle, read-aloud picture books for ages 3-5, where every story grows one warm, big-hearted lesson.
