Joy Cowley & Gavin Bishop
Friends: Snake and Lizard

The beguiling pair introduced in Snake and Lizard now share a burrow and are business partners, too!
Snake is elegant and calm, and a little self-centred; Lizard is exuberant and irrepressible. Even though they’re opposites, they are good friends. With its wisdom, acceptance and good humour, Snake and Lizard captures the essence of friendship. The stories are beautifully illustrated by Gavin Bishop in the warm and clear colours of the desert.
