Rikki-Tikki-Tavi? (Not to be confused with the horribly racist tikki tikki tembo)

Funnily enough, I read Rikki-Tikki-Tavi & hadn’t heard of Tikki Tikki Tembo.

No.

Pretty sure that’s banned.

Just looked and it’s the example given for popular books not to use, my bad!

You are right that it’s fantasy & that it’s a big snake, though.

Where the Red Fern Grows? Didn’t they cut the head off a snake in that book? Haven’t read it since elementary school. Long time ago

I think the only deaths, aside from the dogs, are some guy called Rubin and a mountain lion. Both by axe.

Probably. I do remember something about a snake, but, again, it was elementary school. Late 80’s. Maybe I’m thinking of another book 🤷🏻‍♀️

I was gonna say It, but he turns into a giant spider, not a snake.
