Crocodaddy

(4) K-3 Illustrated by David Walker. A boy and his father play in a pond, where the boy imagines capturing the "sly old Crocodaddy": "Fearlessly, I step in front, / captain of the / Crocodaddy hunt!" The rhyming text takes a few missteps, but the dramatic illustrations of the boy's fantasy easily communicate this father and son's warm real-life relationship.
