5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful emphasis on being unique!
Reviewed in Canada on September 27, 2021
This is an adorable little children's book about how snakes don't have legs (like most animals do). It’s a great reminder for kids that each of us is special in our own way. While birds have wings (and two legs), many mammals have four legs, and of course us humans have two.
Displayed using a dyslexia friendly font, with bold background colours and cute little illustrations I can see no reason why every kid wouldn't appreciate this adorable little wonder. Kelly Tills does an excellent job of ensuring that no one animal is left feeling ugly or unwanted.
This is especially pertinent because often snakes are given a bad rap for historical reasons and not necessarily because they are all that dangerous. Yes there are venomous ones, and you never want to pick-up a snake in the wild. But as the owner of two corn snakes, a ball python, and a boa constrictor I can't emphasize enough how nice it is to see the snake used in a positive fashion!
The perfect little book for children under 3 years of age and appropriate for just about anyone.

Fun and informative. I'm not a fan of snakes but I must admit that learning about how they get around is a very interesting topic. This book is cute and to the point, engaging and fun. It's a great read for those younger readers and those who have some obstacles to reading as the text is dyslexia friendly. Love this!

3.0 out of 5 stars I think it’s a nice book. It’s simple to read and the illustrations are good.

Snakes Have No Legs is a picture book by Kelly Tills, and illustrated by GetYourBookIllustrations. This book aims to teach kids a little bit about animals, snakes in particular. It begins by comparing how many legs animals have, and talks about how snakes have none.

I think it’s an interesting book. There’s a few facts in the book, such as explaining how snakes move around. And it answers a few questions that kids might have about snakes. It’s fairly simple, and the majority of words are not too difficult. So I think a lot of young readers may have an easy time with this book.

And, even if they can’t read the words, they can have a laugh at the fun illustrations. The illustrations are definitely a bit of fun. There’s some really good moments of the snake messing around throughout the book. I love when we first meet it, it’s trying to wear a shoe. And there’s a really good one of the snake wearing a scarf.

I think it’s a nice book. It’s simple to read and the illustrations are good.

This is a wonderfully written story that asks the questions most children asks about snakes. One question, "How do snakes move?" The illustrations are cute and will have everyone laughing out loud. I highly recommend this entertaining educational book

Wonderfully fun, audience-appropriate, small and mostly to the point children book about how snakes get around. I keep thinking that the subtitle did not need to mention the slithering, or the book speak about hands or wings but that is me liking my children's books to focus on what their main title says without seguing in the body or being redundant in the subtitle
