(QED Publishing, March 23, 2017)
All the animals are frightened of Snip Snap Croc. She could gobble them up in one bite! Snip Snap Croc swishes her tail and sings to all the creatures on the shore, showing them just how sharp her teeth are. All the mums in the jungle warn their children about the Snip Snap Croc – Mama Baboon and her baby, Mama Meerkat and her little ones, even Mama Lion and her bouncy little cubs. But on the sandy bank, something strange and wonderful is happening: underneath Snip SnapCroc’s tummy the ground begins to move, and up to the surface come a clutch of eggs, each carrying a baby Croc. And with 23 little babies all of her own, it’s Snip Snap Croc who’s singing to her babies to be careful. This timeless book shows that even the scariest animals have a softer side, and is sure to appeal to young lovers of jungle animals everywhere. Beautifully illustrated, QED Storytime introduces young children to the pleasures of reading and sharing stories. Discussion points for parents and teachers are also included.
