Bookroo's summary

Ari's anger leads her to insult an innocent snail, but her half-hearted apology isn't enough. As Ms. Snail and her friends invade every aspect of Ari's life, they demand a genuine apology. Will Ari learn the true meaning of remorse, or will the snails persist in their quest for sincerity? This whimsical tale explores the power of a heartfelt apology through a series of humorous encounters.

From the publisher

This zany, charming story shows that sometimes we get mad and helps teach the importance of a real apology! “Look at that slimy body. That silly shell. Those tentacle eyes! I just can’t look at you anymore, snail.” Ari is feeling angry. When she takes that anger out on an innocent snail, the snail demands an apology! Which Ari gives, half-heartedly. And that’s that. Until Ms. Snail and her friends appear in every corner of Ari’s life, determined to elicit the most genuine apology from an increasingly regretful girl.
