Cute Crocodile Coloring Book

About this book

It reads a picture book on a braided rope mat, carries a stack of three cubes, gardens in overalls with a trowel and three sprouts, and drinks tea on a checkered picnic blanket. Then it rides a scooter in a helmet, ties a bow on a gift box, blows bubbles and bakes in a chef hat and apron with a tray of star-shaped cookies. The last four pages show it sailing a small boat, sharing an umbrella with a friend in the rain, building a sandcastle with a bucket nearby and setting off with a full backpack. Each crocodile has a spotted back, belly bands and a toothy smile, and each scene adds objects with their own small parts: scooter wheels, umbrella panels, castle towers, backpack buckles. That mix of a familiar character and new props makes the book a good step up from simple single-animal pages.
