Story Behind The Book
This story was inspired by a visit from a carpet python to my own backyard. The hungry reptile came in search of a meal, namely my four little peach face parrots. I called the local snake man to come to remove the python. He laughed at me and told me that since it was "just a little one" I could have moved it myself. I don't think so. I am not a snake charmer.

Gore’s children's and preteen detective mystery, Taya Bayliss: Snake Charmer, is so much fun to read. Taya and Chris have an important mystery to solve while they make preparations for their party, and Taya gets to meet a Carpet Python. While I’ve long been a snake fancier and have owned Burmese and Reticulated Pythons, I was thrilled to learn about this most interesting Australian python. Too many people have irrational fears of these gentle creatures, and Gore’s story is a bright light shining in appreciation of another of God’s creatures. Taya is a marvelous, intuitive sleuth and the two detectives are prodigious at what they do. Taya Bayliss: Snake Charmer is an enjoyable and satisfying mystery and it’s most highly recommended.</span></td> </tr></tbody></table><p> </p>
