I (Don't) Like Snakes by Nicola Davies

A bold, bright and fascinating Nature Storybook about one of the world's most hated creatures - the snake!
It’s an unusual tale and the illustrations, which have a 1950s feel, are sss-sensational-- Alex O'Connell * The Times *
Davies’ chatty, gently humorous narrative style and Luciano Lozano’s superb illustrations of both human and reptilian characters work so well together. The combination of almost cartoon-like humans and zoologically accurate snake drawings together with the differing type-faces used for the text is enormously effective. A must buy for budding zoologists and for the primary school library. -- Jill Bennet * Red Reading Hub *
