TANYA THE TATTLING RATTLER
Hi there, Cosmos Crow here. I am here to tell you about one of my adventures that was, well to be honest, a little stressful for me. I was invited to a snake festival. That’s right, a snake festival. They call them Slithers and I am sure you can
guess why.
Anyway, I have known Sally, a tree climbing snake, for a long time because we had shared the same tree occasionally. I thought that it was nice of her to invite me but I have to admit, I was a little scared. To get over my fear, I told myself that Sally and her friends were non-poisonous snakes and don’t eat crows. So, even though I was a little uncomfortable, I asked myself, “What is the worst that could happen?” After all, they can’t step on my feet ... a little crow humor.
So, I packed my bag, put on my snake-skin boots (just kidding) and flew to Craggy Mountain where they were having the Slither. When I saw the mountain in the distance, I thought, “How in the world am I going to find the Slither”?
Well let me tell you, when I reached Craggy, it was not difficult at all. Thousands of snakes, big ones, small ones, green ones and brown ones, were all going up the mountain to gather in what I later learned was Slither Cave.
