After Cor de Margarida, Capicua presents a new story for young readers.

The snail is weary of having its house on its back. It longs to be agile and free from the weight of its shell — but how does a snail escape from home?

Frustrated, it decides to take a holiday and head to the beach to visit its cousins. Along the way, it tries to make friends, only to realise that everyone is far too busy talking about the much-discussed housing problem.

This children’s book is written by Capicua and illustrated by Matilde Horta
