Review
As a story that was passed down from Choctaw Indians, this story makes a great children's book. Full of rich images and a meaningful story, this is a great book for children of any age. The moral of the story, lying never pays off, is great for little children and the beautifully illustrated pictures will keep children (and their parents) interested in this very relevant story.
Final Statements
Recommended Reading Age: Any
Overall Rating: 5/5

Review
This is a cute little story but I think that it gives the wrong idea to children. Some animals are just not meant to be pets as they can be very dangerous. At the end of the book, the narrator says that he was lying the whole time and that he never had a pet rattlesnake. I think this is also a bad lesson for kids to learn. It is great for children to have a large imagination, but it is not good to teach them that lying is okay. For these reasons, I have to lower my rating of the book.
