Kind Crocodile by Leo Timmers
The kind crocodile gives shelter to a series of animals on its long green back, scaring away their pursuers-until the tables turn and the crocodile doesn't seem so kind any more."The humorously expressive illustrations are appealing, as are the prominent appearances of onomatopoeic animal howls incorporated at strategic points throughout"
-- Kirkus Reviews"Humorous, expressive illustrations."
-- Bank Street Best Children's Books 2023"A diverting reminder that kindness comes in all shapes and sizes—and sometimes requires community."
-- Publishers Weekly"Kids will enjoy the buildup as more and more animals look to Crocodile for help...The words are sparse and the message is subtle, but effective."
-- Politics and Prose Bookshop, US"Not sure how [Timmers] does this art, but by gum I hope he never stops."
-- Betsy Bird, A Fuse #8 Production
