5.0 out of 5 stars
incredibly interesting book, January 7, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: 277 Secrets Your Snake and Lizard Wants you to Know Unusual and useful Information for Snake Owners & Snake Lovers (Paperback)
This book was unbelievably interesting. I only expected to just look at it quickly but found myself looking at every page, and finding something that was like "wow' on every one of them. There were a lot of short articles on many subjects and they were written in a fun and light manner and were really easy to read. Some of it made me laugh, and I learned a lot about snakes in general, for example, their mating habits, and about dangerous snakes, (lots of great stuff on that) and rattlesnake facts and all kinds of things I've never seen in other books. The author seems to have gotten lots of tips for owners from snake owner newsgroups or mailing lists of people who owned snakes because I found a lot of very practical stuff on how to keep snakes, and what to do about mites, and how to handle neighbors who hate snakes, and feeding snakes and terrariums and traveling outside with a snake all from people who had snakes. If the author wrote another book on this subject I'd buy it in a second but for the time being, this is the best book I've ever seen on snakes. I will keep it always because I like snakes.

5.0 out of 5 stars
A "must have" for snake keepers or potential snake keepers, June 26, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: 277 Secrets Your Snake and Lizard Wants you to Know Unusual and useful Information for Snake Owners & Snake Lovers (Paperback)
Ths is a fun book to read if you have any interest in snakes, and a vital part of your library if you keep snakes, or contemplate keeping them. There are lots of "how I do it" tips from experienced snake owners that aren't found in most other snake care books, such as how to safely transport your snake with you in a car, or how to keep your snake cage cool during a heat wave. These helpful hints and fascinating facts are written in a lively manner, with a lot of humor. While the sections are short so you can consider it "bite-sized" reading, I found it hard to put the book down before the last page.
