Solomon Crocodile: A Picture Book

Solomon Crocodile: A Picture Book by Rayner, Catherine. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780374380649.

In his swampy home, Solomon is looking for fun but nobody wants to play. The dragonflies tell him to buzz off, the storks get in a flap, and the hippo is downright huffy. But then somebody else starts making a ruckus . . . and for once it is NOT Solomon. Could it be the perfect pal for a lonely croc? Matching vibrant art with rollicking words, Scottish artist Catherine Rayner has created a funny, reassuring story about a rambunctious youngster who chases off the friends hes trying to make.
