‘Samuel was a snail of some individuality. Some considered him to be the
bad snail in the family, but that was because he did not listen to his elders
and liked to do things on his own… Birds and butterflies recognized no
man-made borders, so why should snails?’
If there is one thing that never gets old or boring or repetitive, it is stories
that detail the shenanigans of animals. Often extremely entertaining, animals
act in certain ways that are intriguing, wondrous and fascinating.
In All Creatures Great and Small, Ruskin Bond brings us stories and personal
essays that speak to this animal-human equation. He takes us into the world
of ambitious snails, conniving eagles, monkeys that love hot baths, humans
who befriend them and many other exciting tales!
