Aaron Slater and the Sneaky Snake (The Questioneers Book #6)
Andrea Beaty, illustrated by David Roberts
A new addition to the bestselling Questioneers chapter book series, starring Aaron Slater, Illustrator!
Zookeeper Fred loves snakes, but his favorite is a tiny green snake named Vern. Vern is sneaky and constantly tries to hide in Fred’s lunch. When Vern gets loose in the zoo and lands atop a boy’s head, it’s trouble!
A few citizens demand that all the snakes must go and the Mayor closes the zoo until the City Council decides what to do. Is Vern a menace? Are the snakes a danger to society? Or a valuable resource for everyone? Who gets to decide?
The Questioneers need all their talents to help Zookeeper Fred, but in the end, it’s Aaron’s art which leads the way.
Sunny Sanaz Shokrae is a writer and photographer who was born in Tehran, raised in Southern California, and currently resides in New York City. This is her first picture book. After becoming a mother, she couldn't find enough resources that celebrated her Iranian background in simple yet clever ways. Perhaps it is her upbringing as an Iranian in the US, a California girl in New York, a perpetual outsider with one foot in each culture that inspires her to bridge all the gaps she experienced growing up. She hopes The ABCs of Persian Food will speak not only to food lovers and small children, but also build confidence in kids who take their Persian food to school to open their lunchboxes and confidently boast about what's inside. Nooshejaan! (The Persian equivalent to "bon appetit!") Ly Ngo Heisig is a multidisciplinary designer and artist who was born in Southern California, raised in Portland, Oregon, and made her career in New York City. Currently living in Paris, France, with her partner and their children, she is fascinated by the ways food culture brings families of different backgrounds together. She hopes to bring joy and wonder to kids all over the world by sharing stories through personal narratives, an exploration of cultures, and a celebration of what makes each of us unique.
