Product Description

Review
"Her illustrations are highly original and visually arresting, and they pulse with energy. Congratulations to Little Tiger Press for taking a chance on such a different-looking book." Inis "Brilliantly innovative illustrations and a story with great pace." Angels and Urchins "With lots of crash-bang-walloping, it's sure to have little ones in fits." Grove Magazine"

Product Description
Mr Wani, the crocodile is late for a party in town. The more he tries to hurry, the more catastrophes he creates - usually involving some poor unsuspecting animal who is passing by! Will the fantastically accident-prone crocodile ever arrive on time and in one piece?

5.0 out of 5 stars Fabulous fun with a wicked sense of humour, 11 May 2007
By H. Jones - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Mr Wani is a luckless crocodile (Wani incidently being Japanese for crocodile) who hurries to a party and ends up squashing animals or breaking things as he goes. (All survive and are unhurt).

Illustrations are very bold and certainly have a japanese anime twist to them. Story line is great as you can predict "What happens next" as poor Mr Wani is about to land on some unsuspecting creatures.

My 3 yr old certainly loves it as does his father! Anything where there is suffering seems to appeal to a certain age group...

5.0 out of 5 stars Quirky and charming, 11 Jan 2009
By H. Waelend - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
All three of my boys laugh out loud every time we read this absurd, delightful tale. Crushed penguins, sunglass sporting mice-dudes and a crazy croc hero...what else do you need. Gorgeous.

1.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely stupid, 7 Oct 2007
This has to be one of the stupidest books for children that I have ever come across and that's taking the kids-don't-care factor in to consideration. It's just all over the place and honestly, I thought I was reading a book written by a seven year old. There are so many wonderful books for children out there that flow beautifully. This is not one of them. Yes I know children like silly but there's a difference between silly and plain stupid.
