The Crocodile Who Didn't Like Water

(2) PS In this wry and loving story, a small crocodile who, unlike his siblings, doesn't like the water discovers his true nature when he sneezes--and breathes fire. Touches of red in the largely green world mark our hero as an outsider. The story involves no bullying; this is just about the joy and relief of finding yourself, with an added bonus for the aquaphobic reader.
