Default Snails!!!

The Golden Press from St Martin's Press is considered to be
writers of children's books. However, on the back of the
book it states: A Classic Guide for All Ages ;-)

Now that we've got you throughly hooked, lined
and sinkered there is a book you ought to get.

At Barnes and Noble it is in the wildlife section where all the ID-ed


books

are. Very small, a Golden Guide from St. Martin's Press titled POND LIFE


by

George K. Reid. Great reference for whatever you find in the pond.
There you can find out that there are gilled snails who breathe


underwater and

pulmonate snails who must return to the surface to breath.
In my eight little pondlets in the house I have all sorts of snails.
In one closed environment I have had snails for a couple years, they


have

gotten smaller and smaller but they keep on breeding and having new
generations.

(See what ponding does to you, I have pet snails, sheesh!)

You may find the book in the children's area. That's where
I found mine at B & N.
