Some Smug Slug

The slug doesn't heed the other creatures' warnings while he climbs up a big hill. It isn't a hill at all! It's a frog. Gulp!

This bok is a strong example of alliteration. The whole book was heavy on the letter S and I was amused. Too bad about what happens to the slug at the end. ( )

This was the first alliteration book by Duncan that I read and I found it very enjoyable. Although I knew what to expect from the other books as far as style, the stories were each unique. This one follows a slug up an unknown slope who finds a surprise waiting for him. This is a great book to share with very young children to introduce sounds, letters, and vocabulary. ( )

This is the story of a slug who is traveling up a slope, but gets a huge surprise in the end! This book is full of alliteration.
The drawings in this book a really beautifully detailed and it ends with a fun surprise. There are hidden S's all through the book, making it fun to read to your child/class.
