Customer Reviews

Good Book, Poor Quality

My son is 5 and loves this book, the illustrations are fantastic and it is a nice change from actual photos of snakes. That said, within a few days the pages began to come out of the binding and I had to tape the pages together. My son doesn't care, but to me it is a sign of a cheap, poor-quality binding. I would have returned it if he didn't like the book so much.

Snakes

My 5 year old son absolutely adores this book. The pictures are terrific and it had a few of the Cobras which are his favorites. It is also filled with very good information on a large variety of snakes. I think any child interested in snakes should take a look at this one. I plan to purchase more of Seymour Simon's books.

Nice quality book, usefull info

Very well presented book, with good quality photos and its very informative about all the aspects of snake life : reproduction and evolution of a snake is all covered here. Very good book for snake lovers or just someone that is curious about snakes.
