If you think this book is only about taking your pet snake for a stroll, think again!! “Don’t Take Your Snake for a Stroll”, is a tale of all the wild bizarre things that could happen if you took you pet kangaroo, elephant, coyote, skunk, chimp, rhinoceros, or even your pet moose out for a stroll. There are rhymes throughout the book. However, I think children between the ages of two and four may not understand the humor regarding each animal. But it will help them to remember, “If show more you want o have fun without worry, listen to what you should do: Leave all the animals tucked in at home and take only people with you.”
Fabulous illustrations!
Awesome read out loud.
Recommended for children aged 6 and up. show less

Mayhem ensues when when a little girl takes unusual pets like a rhinoceros and a kangaroo to places usually reserved for people.

Great artwork and illustrations. Goofy book about the idea of taking your animals out into the community. Good beginning book for novice readers and animal lovers.
Good for sharing about pets, responsibility, prediction, story telling

Cute, rhyming story of why you should not take animals out with you. However Animals Should Definitely Not Wear Clothing by Judi Barrett is better!
