Satisfyingly nasty - sometimes you just need the bad guy to get his comeuppance.
The enormous crocodile is looking forward to a lunch of small children. He‘s got secret plans and clever tricks. The forest animals aren‘t having any of it.
No idea how I missed this first time round - possibly because it‘s quite viscious. Listened on audio, but went back for the pictures 🐘
And now I need to face the real world 🐊🙁

In honour of Roald Dahl Day on Friday (13th!!) my work bestie and I crafted this in our lunch break... I mostly watched, offered encouragement and took the photos for the GRAM! 🐊
I‘d wanted to make this ever since I was a kid and saw this recipe from Revolting Recipes but my Mum was never into it... and after being a part of the making process - I understand why she wasn‘t keen... it really was revolting 😂
The Enormous Crocodile has “secret plans and clever tricks” that he tells the animals as he goes through the jungle on his way to the village. His plan is to gobble up a child, but when he sets his plans and tricks into motion they are thwarted by the other animals.

Book 47 of 2018: The Enormous Crocodile
"I have secret PLANS and clever tricks," said the crocodile. ? "Oh dear," said Humpy-Rumpy. "I'll bet you're going to do something horrid." ?
PLANS for #30daysofreadathon ?
Just sharing a non book moment from today because it was AWESOME. My first visit to Australia Zoo (of Steve Irwin fame) I highly recommend this for both entertainment and conservation values. This croc is Charlie and when his jaws snap it sounds like he's crushed a car 😳👏👏
"Of course they'll see you... You're so enormous and ugly they'll see you from miles away."
I took a break from Poldark to read my son's library book after he finished it.
It was hilarious! The Enormous Crocodile is sooo very hungry. It's only that he wants to eat CHILDREN!
If you've never read anything by Roald Dahl do yourself a favour and read something - anything! - he wrote.
Culling my kids' books and this one is a keeper. Darkly satisfying. 😈🐊
