Illustrated by
Lynn Munsinger.
To Bugs!, Skunks!, and Slugs, mischief meister Greenberg adds snakes in all their insinuative creepiness. The silliness takes hold as the young hero of Munsinger's watercolors conquers his fear--and the snakes. The tercets are witty and expertly rhymed, the story is never too scary, and the sunny colors of the adept pictures augment the levity of the verse.
