Meet a bug who is as snug as a bug can be. Oh, but not for long! Along comes a knock on the door and suddenly he's off on a wild and risky adventure...

Bug is chased by creature after creature--he's clearly ever so tasty--through woodland, dark caves, and a mighty waterfall! He barely escapes becoming someone's dinner and comes close to meeting all sorts of sticky ends, but he keeps insisting he is "snug as a bug"! Can he make it back home? As snug as a bug can be?

Snug as a Bug is a hilarious picture book romp from Karl Newson, with energetic and characterful illustrations from award-winning illustrator Alex Willmore which help the story leap of the page!
