Crocodile Tears
By Roger McGough
Illustrated by Greg McLeod
The crocodile said to the chimpanzee, “Chimpanzee, I want to be free. The jungle jangle’s not for me.”
Crocodile says goodbye to the jungle and heads for the bright lights of London to find freedom and adventure. But despite the famous sights, city life on a stone-cold street begins to pall... Will crocodile tears become real tears for friends, family and home?
A fantastic picture book for reading aloud, from poetry legend Roger McGough and award-winning animator Greg McLeod.

"Quite genuinely the funniest picture book I've read in a very long time! Hilarious rhyming text, lots of visual fun and silliness too! Absolutely delightful!"
