Crocodile Fossil loves everything about the beach...except the part about swimming. Following some coaxing from his animal friends, the quiet croc faces his fear, creating a not-so-quiet "SPLASSSHHH." As in The Quiet Crocodile, there's not much story here; the book's calling card is the meticulous art in which critters use the croc's back as a climbing structure.

"Fossil, the crocodile, loves the quiet" and "likes to be alone." Too bad for him, then, that with the turn of each page, more of his animal friends climb onto his back until he finally loosens up. And that's all there is to it. The slight story's selling point is its fastidious, fine-lined art, which features critters in spiffy attire.
