I found myself veering off into a very poor Australian accent whilst reading this one aloud. It’s by an Australian author, who was inspired by pictures from the Queensland floods, and it helps you get over the problem of calling welly boots gumboots if you give it a bit of an Aussie twang! See, all those wasted hours watching ''Neighbours'' have finally come in handy! Still, it’s easy to read and although it’s a little macabre we didn’t find it too scary in our house, and there were no nightmares afterwards. I’d suggest that since the story is perhaps a little advanced for younger children you try borrowing a copy first from the library, and then if it goes down well, invest in your own for repeated crocodile fun!
