The Girl Who Wore Snakes

When I was an elementary school librarian, this book was an all time favorite with all ages. When my nearly four year old daughter told me she wanted a book about snakes, this was the title I asked for at the library. Children love the idea of Alli being the leader in the bunch by taking to snakes, yet they can also identify with others in the illustrations and story who do no like snakes. The deep rich tones of the illustrations blend so beautifully with the story that it almost seems as if the same person wrote and illustrated the book. This would be a wonderful addition to anyone's collection.
