Short product description

Ladders and Snakes

The climb is never easy.

Each rung takes you higher, but the journey brings uncertainty, hidden dangers and people whose intentions may not always be what they seem.

Mike Wilson uses the familiar imagery of ladders and snakes to explore ambition, perseverance, trust and the determination to keep moving forward.

Reach the peak. Wear your crown. Don't let them pull you down.

By Mike Wilson
