“When Fred The Snake Goes to School by Peter B. Cotton is a charming story about a snake who goes to school and wins the hearts of everybody there. The story also helps children realize that not all snakes are poisonous and harmful; some can be friendly too, like Fred. Bonnie Lemaire’s illustrations breathe life into the author’s words and give good action and movement to the story, making it exciting for young readers. The story has loads of appeal and children will enjoy going to school with Fred and the little boy, and having fun with them and their adventures. When Fred The Snake Goes to School by Peter B. Cotton is good for storytelling and read-aloud sessions in classrooms and school libraries.” — Readers’ Favorite

Fred the Snake playfully conveys good advice for young readers with easy to understand rhymes. The colorful illustrations also play a part in this charming book aimed at the two year toddler and his/her older friends. The third book in the series (“Fred the Snake Gets Squished and Mended” and “Fred the Snake Goes to School”) finds Fred’s good friend, Jungle Jim, coming to visit and bringing some of his jungle friends with him. The journey introduces the young reader to ocean travel (since there are no jungles close to Fred’s new home), indigenous jungle animals, and Jungle Jim. This book is a delightful tale about friendship and sharing life experiences.
