A bold, bright and fascinating Nature Storybook about one of the world's most ha
ted creatures - the snake! A bold, bright and fascinating Nature Storybook by aw
ard-winning writer and zoologist Nicola Davies, about one of the world's most ha
ted creatures - the snake! Perhaps it's the way they slither, or maybe it's thei
r slimy, scaly skin ...whatever the reason, many of us shiver at the thought of
a snake - and so does the little girl in this book. But the rest of her family l
oves them and as they tell her more about snakes (did you know they have no eyel
ids, smell with their tongues and can swim?) she has a change of heart, and by t
he end of the book she loves them too. Luciano Lozano's stylish, colourful and i
nformative illustrations perfectly match the warmth and humour of the text.
