I was going to post this in the book section but thats a pretty dead forum so i'm hopeing someone here may be able to help me. I'm trying to find a book that i used to check out from the library when i was younger (mid 80's) but i don't remember it's title. it was from the early to mid 70's (i think)and was written in the form of a diary. it was about a boy who kept a few snakes... i remember there was a water snake he kept in a bathtub and a boa that ended up dying from mouthrot... i think there was a kingsnake in there somewhere?? sorry i know this isn't much info but i'm hopeing it may ring a bell with someone here.

thanks
