Publisher's Synopsis
This story is true as told by Joey. We were both excited about meeting our cousins, since we rarely met any of our relatives.Mom took us over to play with them while she had a chance to speak with Aunt Jean. Well, our cousins were a bit on the wild side. At first, we liked their spirit, but soon we realized they were a bit too reckless for Joey and me. They took us to a wooded area that had a large patch of white sand. There were snakes everywhere. At first, I did not see them, since they blended in among the trees. Unfortunately, Joey and I were separated. PeeWee, the only male cousin out of the bunch, had something he was dying to share with Joey. I went with my four female cousins to look for who-knew-what?I was very upset to discover Joey up in a tree with PeeWee wanting to get down. But, he was afraid because of the snakes they seemed to be everywhere.Well, I had some experience in dealing with snakes by using a strong stick. I got Joey down from that tree and away from snakes or anything else that would harm him, such as our crazy cousin, PeeWee.
