 Good Book, Poor Quality August 20, 2008
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.

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.

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.
