Last month Sean was learning about different kinds of reptiles including snakes. Sean wanted to learn more about snakes so we checked out Snakes by Adrienne Mason from our local library.
For being only 32 pages long, Snakes manages to pack in a lot of information about snakes: their habitats, their anatomy, their biology and the basic different types of snakes. The book is beautifully illustrated and Sean and I spent more of our time discussing the illustrations than we did in reading the book.
If you have a budding young herpetologist or you live in an area populated by snakes I recommend this book. Although we've never seen a snake in wild I've shared stories of growing up in San Diego where rattle snakes were commonplace.
