The author and illustrator of this book might have a solution for you if you do.There was always a kid or even more in my classes growing up that had or did everything better than you. Seems that is the class even as you grow up into adult life. Humm... Just thought I would get away from those types. Guess not. Anyway....We had the priviledge to preview My Crocodile Does Not Bite written and illustrated by Joe Kulka from NetGalley. I was so impressed with the artwork of this book, that I looked him up. His website it [...]. I would recommend going to it and looking around. This guy has talent. Not with just drawing, by the way. The story line was great. Even with the negative comments from the bully type character, the main character of the book kept his cool. He continually showed the remarkable talents of his pet crocodile. Must to the dismay and aggrevation to the bully. She, yes, I said she, must get her way all through life and cannnot stand the thoughts of someone out doing her. She learns a valuable lesson in the end as we all should. Admit defeat and congratulate the other. There is usually a next time around that you will have the chance to out do another...if that is your cup of tea.I would recommend this book. Very enjoyable and an easy read for 6 to 7 and above.
Cindy Lou's nose was stuck high up in the air, almost as high as her dog Fifi's. Everyone was bringing their pets to the "annual school pet show" and stood waiting around at the bus stop. No doubt Fifi the poodle would win over that cat and no way could she lose to a mere goldfish and frog. That is until Ernest showed up with some real competition. He had a crocodile, a BIG crocodile on a leash. "That's the ugliest dog I ever saw!" Cindy Lou snarled at Ernest. She was worried that ugly dog would bite everyone. Not very likely because, Ernest claimed, "My crocodile does not bite."Ernest's crocodile, Gustave, was very well-trained and with a snap of his fingers, he sat up and begged. The bus pulled up and Cindy Lou began to yap again, telling the bus driver that Ernest's crocodile "will bite everybody!" Not very likely because, as Ernest said, "My crocodile does not bite." Everyone tried to get on the bus, including the crocodile, but he was just a tad too big to fit through the door. Ernest and Gustave slithered this way and that as they made their way to school. "Stay away! That monster bites!" Mmmm, Cindy Lou thought Fifi was going to be the winner of the pet show, but would Gustave be able to steal the show?This is an adorably hilarious tale of Gustave, the crocodile who didn't bite. Cindy Lou, of course, is the mean gal that every school seems to have. Her pink poodle, Fifi, looks like a runaway winner even if she can't do so much as a single trick. Everyone is in love with Ernest's most unusually ugly dog, Gustave the crocodile. The twist at the end is very amusing and quite a satisfactory conclusion to the story. The artwork is lively and has great kid appeal with wide-eyed Gustave prancing through the pages. If you have a youngster who likes pets, especially highly unusual ones, you just might want to add this one to your list!The book courtesy of the publisher.
My son is 2.5 and he can't get enough of this book. It's a cute and funny story about an unconventional pet. The phrase "My crocodile does not bite!" is used over and over and is in a bold green font. When I point to it my son loves shouting it with me. The illustrations are well done and colorful. We have really enjoyed this story!
This book was so cute. My son enjoyed listening and I enjoyed reading it to him. The illustrations are nice and colorful too. I definitely recommend to any parent of young children.
