THE TALE OF CROTCHETY CROCODILE
Crotchety Crocodile awoke one
morning in a bad mood. “I think I’ll be
mean to others today,” he thought.
“There’s a little rabbit. I’ll show my big
teeth and scare him.”
“There’s a darling deer. Oh, little deer,
here’s a lovely blanket for you,” he said,
pointing to a mud puddle. The little deer
stepped on it and fell right into the mud!
