"In the biggest, brownest muddiest river in Africa, two crocodiles lay with their heads just above the water. One of the crocodiles was enormouse. The other was not so big."
One of Roald Dahl's best-loved books. The Enormous Crocodile is out hunting for his tea...and his favourite meal is children!
"For my lunch today", he said, I would like a nice JUICY little child." The Enormous Crocodile is planning what to have for his lunch. He's the greediest croc in the whole river, and he wants to eat something juicy and delicious. But what can the greedy grumptious brute guzzle up? Beware! He's looking for someone to feast upon... someone who looks a lot like YOU! The text in this edition of The Enormous Crocodile was updated in 2022 for young independent readers.
