The crocodile's side of the story is not what you'd expect. Funny and filled with fabulously rich illustrations.

FINALLY. A children's book with an unambiguously happy ending.

I feel like this is one of those picture books where it would be more fun if you narrated the pictures rather than reading the story. It's so fun and clever, but the story is not geared towards kids.

Lounging around on his comfortable mudbank in Egypt, a self-satisfied crocodile is suddenly netted up and carried away to France. The Emperor Napoleon has ordered him placed on display in Paris as a trophy! At first all the attention is nice, but what’s a hungry crocodile to eat in this strange place?
It’s a wickedly funny tale delightfully illustrated by the author.
