Crocs at Work

by Robert Heidbreder, illustrated by Rae Maté

tagged: alligators & crocodiles, poetry (see also stories in verse), humorous stories
Description

“Reminiscent in tone of the 1958 classic What Do You Say, Dear? by Sesyle Joslin and Maurice Sendak, this happy double message gives child readers plenty of freedom to create their own alliances.” —Quill & Quire

In Crocs at Work, the team that created the children’s Crocodiles Play! and Crocodiles Say… tackle the world of work—again with laughs and poetry.
