One day a tiny water snail appears in Abby's fish tank.
(synopsis from Goodreads)
The writing in this is pretty terrible, and I thought at first that I'd stumbled across another dud. It doesn't work as a short story.
However, if it were illustrated throughout, it might make a passable picture book. At least, it would if all the grammar and punctuation errors were cleaned up.
The moral of the story is, I guess, to check your pond weeds carefully. That's about all I really got out of this one.
