Slinky's Guide to Caring for Your Snake

Isabel Thomas

Hardcover (Raintree, Aug. 14, 2014)

Titles in the Pets' Guides series teach young readers how to care responsibly for their chosen pet. However, in a unique spin, each book is written from the point of view of one of the animals themselves, thus also allowing the books to be used to teach perspective. In this book, Slinky the Snake reveals how readers should go about choosing a pet snake, what supplies they will need, how to make a new snake feel at home, and how to properly care for a pet snake, including feeding, exercising, and keeping a snake vivarium clean. Text in the book is accompanied by clear, labelled photographs to further reinforce key concepts.
