This is a fun story with an interesting twist: this book can be read from the front or the back! Decide which version of the story you want to hear - Vernon s or The Snake s- and then enjoy an entertaining tale brought to life by Eleanor s wild and wacky illustrations. When you ve heard one side of the story, just flip it over for the other perspective! Vernon and the Snake are forced to face their fear of each other when they unexpectedly meet one day. There is only one backyard; will one of them be finding a new place to hang out? Or will Vernon and the Snake learn to live with each other? This is a great book for reminding kids (and grownups too) that there is more than one side to every story!

More About the Author
Crystal J. Stranaghan was born in a small BC coastal town called Ocean Falls, best known for its pulp and paper mill, excessive amount of rain and resident ghosts. When the town closed, her family moved to Vancouver Island. In 1996, Crystal moved to the big city of Vancouver to attend Simon Fraser University, and because she felt it didn't rain quite enough in Vancouver, she moved to Ireland (another place known for its rain and its ghosts) to complete her Masters Degree in Health Psychology. Upon returning to Vancouver, she turned her focus to the writing and publishing of books. You can see the recurring themes of rain, ghosts, and social responsibility reflected in her writing. These days, Crystal spends her time writing and traveling around the country teaching people about writing for children, publishing books and speaking at all kinds of interesting events.

Awesome Book!!!,

This review is from: Vernon and the Snake (Paperback)
This is such a great book! It's about an encounter between a boy and a snake, first explained from Vernon's perspective, then from the snake's! It's a really fun and clever concept.
My daughter LOVES this book, and wants us to read it to her every night! It's funny, engaging, and overall a wonderful story, and the illustrations are absolutely beautiful. I highly recommend it!
