From the Back Cover
Once upon a time in ancient China, there lived a humble and hard-working young man named Tuan. One night he came across the biggest snail he had ever seen. "Are you hungry?" he asked the snail? "I'll look after you!"
The next night, there was a delicious dinner on the table when Tuan came home, but the cook was nowhere to be found!
Reviving the ancient Chinese folk tale, children's film animators J. C. Hsyu and Kenard Pak have created a contemporary cinematic feel in this enchanting book that blends magic with realism.
