Crocodile wants to eat Hen, but the unflappable bird puts him off by calling him "brother." Crocodile seeks advice and finds out that chickens and crocodiles both lay eggs, making them brother and sister of sorts. This new edition of the story, with simple vocabulary and repetition, is enhanced by new high-personality, humorous cartoons.

When Amy Lou bugs Sam by helping him whether he needs it or not, he makes her a mean Valentine card. Then he loses it before the school party, and it ends up in his teacher's pile instead. Sam must find out who put it there. Hoff's cartoon illustrations capture the mood of this amusing story that portrays real emotions and squabbles.
