Recent Release, "The Snake Who Wore T-Shirts," from Fulton Books Author Mark Gilkes, Chronicles a Young Corn Snake's Remarkable Journey of Discovery and Growth

Boulder, CO, October 05, 2026 --(PR.com)-- Mark Gilkes has completed a new book, "The Snake Who Wore T-Shirts," that captures the true story of Snakey, a curious corn snake whose adventurous spirit leads her and her owner, Aidan, through a series of transformative experiences. From her earliest days of exploration to encounters that challenge and educate her, Snakey's journey unfolds chronologically, inviting readers into an intimate portrait of companionship between a young reptile and the family devoted to her care.

Born in London and raised across England and the Caribbean, Gilkes grew up surrounded by artistic influences—his father's academic passion for literature, his mother's musical talent—yet he charted an unexpected course toward physics and engineering. Now balancing a demanding career managing an engineering team, he has rekindled his childhood love of storytelling, spending his evenings crafting narratives that blend his scientific mind with the creative sensibilities instilled during his formative years.

"The Snake Who Wore T-Shirts" resonates with readers seeking authentic tales of animal companionship and personal growth. Through Snakey's eyes, families discover how everyday moments become valuable teaching experiences, and how the bond between human and animal transcends species. Gilkes weaves together wonder, vulnerability, and resilience, creating a narrative where each challenge becomes an opportunity for both Snakey and her loved ones to flourish and understand one another more deeply.

"Writing about Snakey's adventures allowed me to honor both my scientific background and my artistic heritage," said author Mark Gilkes. "I hope young readers and their families see themselves in this story of curiosity, courage, and unconditional care."
Published by Fulton Books, Mark Gilkes's charming work offers children and families a heartfelt exploration of responsibility, discovery, and the unexpected bonds we form with the creatures who share our lives. Readers will find themselves reflecting on their own capacity for wonder and connection.

Readers who wish to experience this delightful work can purchase "The Snake Who Wore T-Shirts" at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes Store, Amazon, Google Play, or Barnes and Noble.
