An exciting addition to the narrative non-fiction series Nature Storybooks, about a Python. Now in paperback!

It’s morning in the bush. Python stirs and slithers out from her shelter. She warms her head and smells the air with her forked tongue. Python is a beautiful snake, but also dangerous – and she is looking for a meal.
