A Story World by Sylvia Labrum
Stories begin in the most unlikely places.
The adventures of snail, worm, and friends.

Meet the Characters

The purple-shelled snail at the center of Unlikely Friends.

The brown worm whose friendship gives the story its title.

A small winged companion from the original story artwork.

The brave baby mouse, swept to the isle by the flood, whose long tail saves the day.

The great tundra swan the friends heal — who gives worm the gift of sight.

The shaggy old owl, wide awake at the wrong hour — muddled, but wise.
