About the Author

About the Author

Emma Petty Beals grew up on a small farm in Flippin, Arkansas. Being the second oldest of five siblings, she had many chores to complete each day. She always had a fear of snakes, poisonous or not! Her dad taught her how to tell the difference between the two, but she was always fearful of any that crossed her path.

Beals graduated from Indiana State University with a master’s degree in education and taught for many years in schools in Indiana. Every year her students enjoyed her many stories from her childhood experiences. The stories about snakes were always their favorites. In many cases, she used these stories as a teaching moment to share a life lesson with her students.
