Siobahn | 13 comments OK so this group has helped me find two books from my childhood, I am hoping that third time‘s the charm. I’m really sorry that this is all going to be so very vague.

Like…the front cover had some children, woodland animals, a wizard I think? And a doofy looking dragon? The art spread to the backcover too.

And one of the talking animal characters was a snake, and I think his name was Old No Fangs? But he ends up getting a set of fake wooden ones carved by one of the children… And I distinctly remember this because he says he’s only going to use his fangs to scare the other creatures not to hurt them. And there was a black and white sketch as well.

I think I was in elementary school when I read this book so possibly from the 90s? Maybe 1998?

I'll have a scout through my bookshelves and see if I discover anything.

Siobahn | 13 comments I remember the sketch vividly! It was on the left page side, and it had the snake with it’s mouth open, with the wooden fangs in place.
