I have had the craziest experiences with animals in my life. I bet it would make a great book: moose, deer, raccoin, foxes, skunks, woodchucks, and a big snake in the house...l could get rich and open a place for us all to get better...and it would be fun writing it!

[A really big & dangerous] Snake brought into restaurant rattles nerves
By Andreas Preuss - CNN - August 16, 2015
Excerpts:
. . . was brought into an eatery in Nixa, Missouri, this week . . . the couple insisted the snake was a service animal and the restaurant should allow it to stay. . . .
. . . [whew!] . . . The snake may have had a calming effect on the couple, but by no means can it legally be deemed a service animal.
The Americans with Disabilities Act states "only dogs are recognized as service animals."
And if [poster's interjection here: IF, they say, IF?!] the snake posed a concern for public safety, then patrons could have notified police or animal control, according to Nixa city's communications director, Jill Finney. . . .
[Actually, in the video, her voice did not emphasis the "if" but in print it just looks like it must meet that criteria as if any snake in a café would not pose a risk, eh?
She did emphasis if this or something similar happens to others, and the café owner does not act, the local authorities can be called by a patron.] -

That's not far from us. So stupid. I saw a snake wrapped around someone's neck in a pet store and it was creepy looking. Gross, actually.
But in a restaurant?? They can carry salmonella and other stuff.

aren't monkeys service animals? or whatever primate helps people in wheelchairs, etc...
that is funny about other stories.
I have some good ideas for kids books and I am an artist, but I still have trouble getting that ball rolling.
anyone know how to actually DO the process?
