I liked that "The Enormous Crocodile" tries his tricks but they never worked because the other animals were friendly and saved the children.

We listened to this as an audiobook because my brother and sister like it - I’m a bit too old now! It’s a good book for younger children as it’s a simple storyline to understand, with amusing characters and a funny ending.

Really funny book!

I read about an enormous crocodile who liked to eat children. It was fiction and I liked the not so enormous crocodile. It was interesting because I like Roald Dahl books and this was about animals which I love. I would recommend it to all my friends.

Funny fiction book!!

My favourite part is when the desperate crocodile tries to be a coconut tree.

I recommend it to all the good readers out there

11 Aug 2023

I would give the book 1000 out of 1000 in real life because it is so funny at the end because it says 'sausage' which means the crocodile gets burnt by the sun.
I would tell my friends to read it because of the elephant swinging the crocodile.
