Great little book

This book was a gift for my nephew. He loved it! It was a little bit smaller (thinner) than I anticipated, but it was still very nice.

all about snakes

This book starts out with the section called meet the snake. It tells about the snake and how it moves and eats. It tells about it's various body parts and their functions. It then moves on to tell about types of snakes. It ends with thoughts on snake education. This book is perfectly laid out-pleasing to the eye. It is jam-packed with useful info! If you are looking for information about snakes this would be helpful.
