The Enormous Crocodile

I read the children’s book called, ‘The Enormous Crocodile.’

This children’s book was written by Roald Dahl and illustrated by Quentin Blake.

This children’s picture book tells the unusual tale of two crocodiles, one quite enormous, the other not so big.

In the muddy river the crocodiles discuss what they want to eat for lunch, but then disagree when the not so big crocodile finds out that the enormous crocodile wants to eat a child.

The not so big crocodile tried to persuade the enormous crocodile to change his food choice, but he leaves the muddy river and goes into the forest in search of his lunch.

When the forest animals find out, they make it very difficult for the enormous crocodile and warn the children each time he’s about to pounce.

So, what will happen in the end?

What do you think?

To find out what happened to the enormous crocodile in the end, why not read the book or watch the story on YouTube, then you can tell me what you think.

It’s an interesting story but could be scary for very young children.

Spider Sandwiches

I read the children’s book called, ‘Spider Sandwiches.’

This children’s book was written by Claire Freedman and beautifully illustrated by Sue Hendra.

It’s a delightful rhyming children’s picture book that tells the tale of Max the monster and all the unusual foods he likes to eat.

But Max the monster likes eating things that we wouldn’t dream of eating.

With his best snack being a spider sandwich that consists of spider web and all, it’s completely yucky!

So, if you like monsters and yucky foods this is the book for you.

A great rhyming picture book for children, it’s colourful and fun.

It’s a great book that all young children will enjoy.
