Catching Cobras


Merritt wrote a short essay in his best penmanship. It was entitled "How to catch a King Kobra." I thought it was hilarious so I'll share. (Spelling as in the original.)

"How to catch a king kobra.
First get rich.
Sencond buy an unbreakable glass cage.
Third go to where the king kobra lives.
Fourth open the cage.
Fith put some thing king kobras love to eat.
Sixth hide and watch the snake eat the food.
Seventh then close the cage.
Fnaly go home with the snake.

If you want to catch a king kobra this is how to do it."

Here's the ferocious captured creature...I love the alliteration of King Kobra all spelled with "k's"...cobra should totally be spelled with a "k", it looks much more fierce.

Merritt is a very good artist! The flare on the Kobra is especially nice!! Fun story as well, however I don't think I'll be catching a King Kobra anytime soon...;)

You have a writer and an artist. A talent mix between both parents. Very cool!
