SLITHERING snakes and brilliant bugs kept kids entertained in Winsford last week.

As part of the Mythical Maze Summer Reading Challenge 2014, the Creepy Crawly Show visited the town centre library to let children get hands-on with an array of exotic animals.

Lizards, scorpions, tarantulas, giant cockroaches, snails and frogs were among the beasts that the bravest kids dared to handle on Thursday, August 14.
