Bookroo's summary
Lyle the crocodile's world turns upside down when his mother moves in with the Primms, just as they prepare for a new baby. Can Lyle help his mother adjust to bustling city life while embracing the changes a new sibling brings? With humor and heart, Lyle navigates the challenges of family and friendship, discovering what it truly means to belong. Will he manage to keep everyone happy, or will the chaos be too much for this lovable crocodile?
From the publisher
Lyle the lovable crocodile faces two big challenges: introducing his mother to city life and preparing for the Primms’ new baby. “Warm and witty, the book’s multi-level text gets plenty of help from the colorful pictures in Waber’s familiar style, which are a joy in themselves.” – Booklist
