Too much to do, too many people to help, and far too little time! How could one weary wizard possibly help everyone who needed him? He needed a secret weapon, and he was absolutely certain he knew just what it was and where to find it… But what if, after all this, he was wrong?
Have you ever wondered what else to do on a rainy day after you’ve jumped in all the muddy puddles in the garden? Or had a picnic in a tent under the table? That was the wizard’s problem too. Magic all day long, and he needed something new. He sat in his favourite chair and thought about how to have fun.

Poems of flowers, wondrous and wild,
Deep in the hedgerows, scented and mild.
Ferns and flumbers, curly and bright
Sunshine yellow, oh, what a sight!
Come take a walk with imagination,
With bears and squirrels, swifts in formation,
Flowery flumbers, a subtle reflection
That all in nature is pure perfection.
‘Perfection is found in perfect imperfection’

Amazing Monty is the main character of this story. He sets out on a determined and exciting mission to improve life for himself and his family, much like we do as human beings. Although he is only a snail, his role in nature is just as important as that of a pride of lions, even if he may seem less striking at first glance. Every creature has its place in maintaining a healthy environment.
Unfortunately, many plants and animals have disappeared over time, and climate change has had a serious impact on the world we live in. This story reflects those changes and reminds us of the value of every living thing.
I hope you enjoy reading this short story.
