      Unlike the previous reviewer, who evaluated the book on punctuation and writing style, I will say this about the author; Kevin McCurley is one of the leading breeders in the world on ball pythons. If you want to know something about ball pythons and how to raise one for your very own, this would be a good book to own.

      The hardcover version of this book is far superior and contains much more information about breeding and the hobby than the paperback version. The paperback version deals with how to keep ball pythons for yourself, and leaves out a lot of the advanced breeding and genetic information.
