The Snorgh and the Sailor


Book Description

Snorghs don't have visitors. Snorghs don't share soup. And Snorghs most definitely DO NOT like adventures.

A poignant and witty story about an unlikely friendship; a surprising journey - and the discovery that we can all do the most amazing things, if we only dare to.
