(3) K-3 Illustrated by JoEllen McAllister Stammen. Onomatopoeic refrains, set in distinctive typefaces, re-create the sounds and pastel illustrations provide a look at a mother crocodile's life along the banks of the Nile. Ranging from the mother's patient watch over a sandy nest to her babies' first swim in the river, this is a solid, atmospheric introduction to the Nile crocodile and its nesting habits.
