Snakes are fascinating creatures and whether it's the media or movies that have us trembling in our boots at the very thought of a snake let alone an encounter with one, that notion is really unfounded. There are some that we would be wise to avoid and the author has done a brilliant job at educating the reader about which snakes fall into that category.There is an incredible amount of information in this book ranging from habitats, anatomy, movement, poisonous and not so poisonous and a whole lot more in between. Beautiful pictures throughout aid identification [and admiration] of many of our wonderful species of snakes from around the world. There are plenty of facts throughout allowing for the "oo's, ah's" and "wow, I didn't know that."I highly recommend this book for anyone who is wanting to learn about snakes or just plain enjoys reading about them. A lovely book - thank you.
