When you promise Croc a party, you better keep that promise and give him a party! Zuva knows you should never invite a crocodile to town—everyone knows that! But what if the crocodile does you a favor? And what if you promise to return the favor by inviting him to the village party? And what if this croc actually comes knocking on your front door? Because this crocodile is a PARTY CROC! This hilarious retelling of a Shona folktale from Zimbabwe is both a cautionary tale about keeping promises and a raucously fun read-aloud for party animals of any age.
MARGARET READ MACDONALD travels the world telling wonderful stories and teaching others how to share them. Her most recent books include Party Croc! and How Many Donkeys? An Arabic Counting Tale. She lives in Washington where she works as a children’s librarian.
Derek Sullivan is a Washington-based illustrator. He has never had the opportunity to invite a crocodile to a party, but isn’t so sure he wouldn’t if he had the chance.
