Some comments...


Two Primary School pupils write about The White Snail book:


"I like the picture with the ants and the lizard. This is a funny story and I love all the pictures in it!"

Steven Kordas



"I like the snail that is painting its house. I think this story is fun to read".

The English cover...

Here is the English cover...at last!

This time the file was OK.

The book is now available at the Kiosk, near the post office, and at

Moustakis bookshop at Saroko.

I am waiting for the printer to deliver more copies so as to distribute to more spots.

I also expect to get some snail cards printed but they seem to delay once more.

Anyway, I was not expecting to have everything ready before the end of this month. Time goes by slowly...

The English cover!


I have been trying to upload this image for some time, but the color is wrong-my white snail is not blue! I don't know what's wrong with the uploading; anyway the picture is identical to the Greek cover on the previous post!

Latest news:
The printer has delivered just a small portion of the White Snail so far, which I have already distributed to some bookshops and kiosks in the neighborhood. I will only mention a few here:

Kiosk-at Leoforos Alexandras (they sell papers and magazines)

Moustakis bookshop-at Ger.Markora street (Saroko)

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Soon available at:


Symmetria bookshop -at Marasli street, near the Fire brigade station

Mazaraki bookshop-just off the 1st Junior High School

Pyxida bookshop- at pezodromos


The book costs just 5.50 e.

The White Snail is here!


The White Snail book for kids has been printed. It's high time I started promoting it!

Here is the cover. This is the Greek one.
On the reverse side of the book there is the English cover. Thus the book has two covers, no back cover. Next time I will show you the English cover.

I contacted two local bookshops this morning and they are interested in displaying it. Snail cards will be printed next week to give out to all the places I visit.
More news soon!
