A Theodor Seuss Geisel Honor Book

Perfect for kids interested in animals, science, and the world of their backyard, this photographic story of a day in the life of a wolfsnail offers a dramatic introduction to a little-known predator and the impact it has on habitats where it does not belong.


On a typical day, the wolfsnail hunts its prey: other snails. Big, strong, and fast (for a snail), the wolfsnail has a taste for meat, and in some areas, it is called the cannibal snail. On the prowl, the wolfsnail finds the slime trail of a smaller snail and follows the path toward its prey. When the chase ends and the dramatic feast is done, nothing remains of the smaller snail... except an empty shell. 

Slithering and suspenseful, this enlightening book also includes amazing facts about the wolfsnail and a glossary.

Sarah C. Campbell is the author of the Geisel Honor Book Wolfsnail: A Backyard Predator, as well as Growing Patterns: Fibonacci Numbers in Nature, Mysterious Patterns: Finding Fractals in Nature, and Infinity: Figuring Out Forever. Her writing has appeared in a variety of publications, including Highlights for Children and the New York Times.

Richard P. Campbell is co-photographer with Sarah C. Campbell of the acclaimed children's nonfiction books Wolfsnail: A Backyard Predator, Growing Patterns: Fibonacci Numbers in Nature, Mysterious Patterns: Finding Fractals in Nature, and Infinity: Figuring Out Forever.
