School Library Journal - 07/01/2006 Gr 1-3-Clear color photos accompany an informative text in this easy reader. Habitats, physiology, hunting patterns, and prey are touched on, as is the snake's place in the animal kingdom and the effect human development has on these slithery reptiles. Similar in reading level to Lucille Recht Penner's more informative S-S-Snakes! (Random, 1994) and Patricia Lauber's nicely crafted Snakes Are Hunters (HarperCollins, 1989), this book will help fill the incessant demands for simple nonfiction on a popular topic.-Patricia Manning, formerly at Eastchester Public Library, NY Copyright 2006 Reed Business Information. - Copyright 2006 Publishers Weekly, Library Journal and/or School Library Journal used with permission.

Booklist - 12/15/2005 From the I Can Read Book series, this colorful volume, created in cooperation with the Wildlife Conservation Society, discusses the physical characteristics and typical behaviors of snakes as well as their place in the world. Simply written but precise, the text covers basic information succinctly. Thomson offers a particularly memorable image when she informs children that if their mouths and bodies were like a snake’s, they “could swallow a watermelon.” Clear, colorful, well-focused photos offer close-up views of snakes in action. Short and informative, for independent reading or for sharing with younger children. - Copyright 2005 Booklist.
