Excerpt from All the Year Round, Vol. 2: A Nature Reader; Part II: Winter The snail has two little horns or feelers in front. If we watch these feelers, we Shall see that it keeps them moving as if it were feeling its way. The eyes are at the base of the feelers, and look like two black dots. The mouth is between them; but we Shall find that it is below the feelers. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
