"Lyle,Lyle,Crocodile By:Bernard Waber ISBN: 0590224336 Strangely enough Lyle a crocodile lives with the Primm Family in their apartment building as part of their family but their neighbor Mr.Grumps and his cat,Loretta do not like him and try to get him put into a zoo! That is until Lyle rescues them both from a fire and he begs him to stay!"
"A mild mannered crocodile, loved by his human family is misunderstood by neighbors. Sadly he is relegated to the local zoo until an act of heroism restores him to his rightful home. This is a well-written tale that reminds me a bit of the Curious George books."
"Mr. Grumps hates Lyle, who lives with the Primm family, because he frightens his cat. After Lyle has an adventure in the department store, Mr. Grumps manages to get Lyle locked up in the zoo. Luckily he gets the green light to come back home before he escapes to Australia.
I loved this book. The pictures are charming. I love the color scheme, the bold lines, and the way Lyle sticks out. Oddly enough, my 7-month-old baby was completely charmed and giggled her way through the pictures."
