Have you read this book yet? It's called How to Teach a Slug to Read, and it's a delightful story about a mother slug teaching her child to read. She uses real strategies, like showing your slug the words that repeat a lot, labeling items around your home, and finding books your slug really likes. She mixes those with slug-appropriate techniques, like putting the book close to the ground.
