Acknowledgments have never known a book to be written and pro duced without the assistance and encouragement of many people and this book is no exception I am grateful to the staff of the Dallas County Conser vation Board who ignited the spark for this book by encouraging me to design interactive components for a traveling snake exhibit unearthing a long dormant interest in teaching about these wonderful animals Once I started I relied on my children their friends and available neighbor kids to test activities and act as models My husband Phil was always a willing photographer and his organizational skills and dili gence in downloading and labeling images saved me more than once Many scientists natural resource managers naturalists and photographers were quite helpful and generous with their knowledge and their images Their interest in the project kept me going However none of this would matter if it weren't for the support and assistance provided by the staff at Chicago Review Press Thank you for your belief in this
