    The Enormous Crocodile is incredibly hungry—and incredibly greedy. His favorite meal is a plump, juicy little child, and he intends to gobble up as many of them as he can! His is sure that his “secret plans and clever tricks” cannot be foiled. But when the other animals in the jungle join together to put an end to his wicked schemes, the Enormous Crocodile learns a lesson he won’t soon forget.

    About The Enormous Crocodile

    The Enormous Crocodile decides that he wants a nice juicy child for lunch, horrifying the other animals in the jungle–his friend, the Notsobig One; Humpy-Rumpy, the hippopotamus; Trunky, the elephant; Muggle-Wump, the monkey; and the Roly-Poly Bird. Despite his secret plans and clever tricks, what the boastful crocodile doesn’t know is that the brave jungle animals have plans of their own for him!

    In the end, the Enormous Crocodile gets exactly what he deserves.
