First, let me state that contrary to what you may have read elsewhere, this book has a very happy ending. What ending could be happier than the cycle of life, a frog getting a good meal? Such a succulent slug! Slugs? Eat up your garden. Frogs? Eat up your slugs. I can tell you which critter *I* prefer!

I teach second grade, and one of our standards is to introduce our students to different forms of figurative language. My students loved all the alliterations and illustrations found in Some Smug Slug. They also enjoyed me reading itto them, and they had fun writing their own alliterations. I would recommend this book to any teacher who is looking for a good anchor book to introduce alliterations to her students.

I really enjoyed the alliteration, pictures and anticipation of this book! The kids were on the edge of their seats! As an environmental education teacher, I also really enjoyed the ending, even if it wasn't exactly a happy ending, it teaches the children about the web of life/food chain. :o)

This is a silly, suspenseful saga penned in tongue-twisting poetry about pride coming before a fall, ignoring neighborly warnings & slithering up a slippery slope into the maw of destiny. Some Smug Slug is super with riveting illustrations! Very well done!
