Review: Both my kids LOVED this book despite their age and interest disparities - The first time I read this book aloud to my children, I did not think either of them would enjoy it. My little girl was only 3 and I feared it was over her head, and my son was 9 years old and only interested in crude humor and Minecraft. But the three of us found a comfortable spot and I read it with as much enthusiasm as I could muster. Lo and behold, they BOTH loved it! I couldn't believe it! Actually, yes I can, because the story is entirely charming and I found myself unable to stop until the story was finished. Even though my voice was getting a little horse at the end, the kids were so into it that I had to push on. When I finally finished, my little daughter whispers "That was such a good book!" and my son immediately grabbed it so he could re-read it on his own. The fact that both of my kids like this - despite their 6 year age gap, and despite them liking such different things - speaks volumes about the quality of the book. And as a parent, I love it that the story is text-rich but also beautifully illustrated in color. I wish there were more books like this. In fact, I'm buying multiple copies as gifts!
Review: Fun and funny and wise. An instant classic. - Cora, who is a Very Good Girl, winds up with something she doesn’t want but truly needs: a Very Bad Crocodile! Full of joy and silliness and mischief and mayhem, it also teaches some deep and wise lessons about knowing and feeling one’s own feelings, and having the courage to speak up for one’s own needs, even when the people in charge, who are supposed to be wise, don’t want to listen. Something many children may need to hear — and may be a few grownups, too! I would recommend this for all young readers. The language may be a little advanced for age 4, depending on the child, but the ideas and the illustrations will still carry the story; the language in the concepts could probably be interesting up through age 7 or 8, because there is enough to take from the story and the pictures as a jumping off point for further conversation. The mad, bad, wild, butt-biting crocodile also adds enough interest for any children who, on the face of it, might resist a story that seems to be about a nice princess. On the negative side, it’s unfortunate that this is yet another children’s book that seems to show the world as consisting only of Caucasian people. The princess & castle type of story takes place in a fantasy Early Europe, when “European” was synonymous with “Caucasian.” So the author is just being consistent with this. Still, if we can imagine talking, magic crocodiles, maybe we can imagine less homogenous human characters in our contemporary books. This may be a consideration for families, like ours, that seek diversity in their reading.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My daughter does not enjoy reading, and we finished this book in two sittings
*by C***Y on February 29, 2024*

I don’t think my daughter has finished a chapter book before, and I bought this book because my daughter name is Cora and the book is titled princess, Cora and the crocodile. This book is fun and amazing you just wanted to keep turning the pages. We read 65 pages in one day. I ordered another book by the same author, and it’s not quite the same, but it is still as fun. There is a picture on every page the illustrations are fabulous. The font is a bit larger, so there’s not as many words on each page. My daughter was so proud of herself for completing a chapter book.
