Synopsis

"When Yellow Snake was born he had bright red dots. But then he grew. His new spots were blue!" So begins this book about the simple adventures of one intrepid little snake. As he wanders through a variety of bright, textured landscapes, "growing" longer and longer on each page, the snake's spots seem to magically change colour every time the page is turned. The snake itself is printed on a yellow ribbon that winds itself throughout the book. Children will learn all about colours while they - and the adults reading to them - will scratch their heads trying to figure out how it's done. Has a great surprise ending!
