Snakes

(3) K-3 Gibbons uses clear, straightforward language to inform readers about a wide variety of snakes. What they eat, where they live, and how harmless many are to humans are all clearly explained. Often viewed as slithery and scary, the reptiles are here rendered more approachable through soft but detailed and accurate paintings. Lesser-known facts (e.g., snakes don't have eyelids) add interest.
