A snail heard that there were strawberries on the east side of the forest. So, he sets off. He met with many animals, but he was too small, and he crawled so slowly. He was worried that other animals were going to the east side of the forest to eat the strawberries, so he crawled as fast as he could. Days and nights passed. He was finally there, and there were lots of strawberries!
