When the skies of Africa darken with rain and the river swells, a
good-natured crocodile named Snout lends his broad back to many stranded
animal neighbors. After he ferries soggy fireflies, dripping hedgehogs,
and other creatures over dangerous waters, his good deeds are repaid in
full when a shift to hot, dry weather leaves him vulnerable instead.
Written by Children's Poet Laureate J. Patrick Lewis and illustrated by
acclaimed picture book artist Monique Felix, The Good Ship Crocodile is
a charming story of friendship sure to inspire readers of all ages.
