"America's favorite reptile." --Booklist
This classic is now available in a board book! Perfect for little hands
and bright minds.
Lyle, Lyle Crocodile lives with the Primm family in the house on East
88th Street in New York City. Lyle enjoys helping with chores, playing
with the neighborhood kids, and entertaining them with headstands and
backflips. He's the happiest crocodile any family ever had . . . until
one neighbor insists that Lyle belongs in a zoo! Mr. Grumps and his
cat, Loretta, don't like crocodiles, and everything Lyle does to win
them over seems to go wrong. It will take all of Lyle's charm--and
courage--to reveal the hero, and friend, behind the big, crocodile
smile.
The classic storybook has been gently abridged and the joyful, endearing
artwork lightly colorized in the author's style in this edition for the
youngest child.
