Crustback and the Wormhole

Book Description

There are many possible reasons why one parent might be less involved in a child’s upbringing; no matter what the reason, the lack of involvement can be very painful for the child. It can be especially difficult for children who have had frequent interactions with that parent in the past.

In Crustback and the Wormhole, the hero, Crustback, is a lovable little snail. Crustback becomes confused when his parents separate. Crustback’s father tells him that he will visit and then does not come when he says he will. Scared and sad, Crustback sets out into the garden where he lives. He falls into a large hole in the earth where he meets a large, but friendly worm. The creature helps him understand conflicting emotions regarding his father. Crustback learns to cope with his troubles and finds a way out of the hole with the help of his new friend.
