Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile (Lyle the Crocodile)

Lyle is just so nice. Unfortunately, some people - and cats - are irrationally terrified by crocodiles. Seriously, what gives?

He scares his neighbor's cat so much that his neighbor arranges to have him sent to the zoo. Where he's miserable.

But then his heroism - saving neighbor and cat from a fire - rescue him and all is well in the world again.

Very similar to Lovable Lyle, another book in the series. Also, please note that this is a lengthy, wordy book and is better suited for the older end of the 4-8 range.

these are the best books - charming in story and illustration - im so glad to be able to share them with my child!

I am now 21 years old and I can still remember the opening line to this tape. The Lyle books are wonderful for children and this tape is a great way to put your child to sleep. The Lyle books are truly one of my greatest childhood memories!

I just purchased this title for my 4 year old daughter, and she (and I) really love it!!! The title of the book doesn't really grab you but it's a sweet story about how the neighbor Mr Grumps really doesn't like Lyle, has him banished to the zoo, and then Lyle ends up saving Mr Grumps. I really like the characters in this series because they remind me of real life people that your kids will have to deal with at some point or another. My daughter was totally engaged.
