Title: How to Staycation like a Snail by Naseem Hrab and Kelly Collier↗

This book reminds us to slow down and enjoy the simple pleasures around us.

Instead of rushing around, you get to relax, notice little things, and have adventures right where you are — just like Snail and his friend Stump! - Library Staff Mei
