Snakes, many people are afraid of them. If we become educated about snakes, then we become more comfortable. We realize which snakes are helpful, which snakes are harmful, and which snakes to avoid.The author, Emma Child, has written a book about snakes test will be helpful to all. Anything you ever wondered about is covered, and much if what you never knew is here. There are about 2,700 snakes, only 275 are poisonous or dangerous. They are usually brightly colored with triangular type heads. Most are found in warm climates. Snakes in general have between 200-400 vertebra, or backbones, very small that help them coil and slither. The rough scales on their bodies have traction like tires, that assist them in moving along. One if the fastest snakes is an Anaconda that can travel through water very quickly. These snakes can grow to 38 feet long and 550 pounds in weight. They will eat anything. Something to abound all together.The different chapters about snakes are so informative. Even if you hate snakes it is good to learn about them. The author has provided pictures, and if you click on them, the picture will enlarge. I think you will be pleasantly surprised at all that you can learn about snakes. Parents/teachers will be very helpful in reading this book to children, so that they may discuss every important fact.Recommended. prisrob. 04-27-14
