Critics Review
“The humorously expressive illustrations are appealing, as are the prominent appearances of onomatopoeic animal howls incorporated at strategic points throughout.”
– Kirkus Reviews“Humorous, expressive illustrations.”
– Bank Street Best Children’s Books 2023“A diverting reminder that kindness comes in all shapes and sizes—and sometimes requires community.”
– Publishers Weekly“Kids will enjoy the buildup as more and more animals look to Crocodile for help…The words are sparse and the message is subtle, but effective.”
– Politics and Prose Bookshop, US“Not sure how [Timmers] does this art, but by gum I hope he never stops.”
