Critical Annotation: If a snake bites a human they can paralyze and kill you. It is important that you get medical help as quickly as possible. It is also important to remember what the snake looks like so that the right antivenom will be given to the person bit by the snake. Here are some don’ts that are very important: don’t cut open the wound, never try to suck the venom out, and never, ever try to catch the snake!
The book will give such information as to where the most venomous snakes are found. What they do to protect themselves when they feel threatened and what you should do if you are bitten by a snake. It includes the symptoms you will feel if you are bitten. The colors of the pictures are vivid and the fact and the fact boxes are full of interesting information. Includes: Glossary, At the library, On the web and Index.
