About the book
The boa constrictor is a very helpful pet especially when there are burglars in the neighborhood. An agreeable pet boa constrictor earns the affection and gratitude of a French village. "Un día, Madame Bodot recibe un extraño paquete. Es el regalo de cumpleaños que su hijo le envía desde Brasil. Cuál será su sorpresa cuando, al abrir la caja, sale Críctor, una boa constrictor bebé. Ella lo adopta y con el tiempo la serpiente, además de ayudar se convierte en héroe." --From publisher's description.
