Nestle's Big Adventure

About the Book

Nestle’s Big Adventure follows a brightly colored and very friendly milk snake as he escapes and crawls through his owner’s home looking for excitement. While the escape and ultimate rescue of Nestle on the deck on a cold December day are real, his trek through the house is imagined. Happily, three years after his adventure, Nestle continues to thrill children when he visits schools, libraries and birthday parties. He has managed to escape a couple more times since then but has not wandered far. He and Bubblegum remain friends.
