Marcos.A 9 years Review The Enormous Crocodile by Roald Dahl. Is a fantastic book . In the story there is a massive crocodile who wants to eat six juicy fat children, but he meets four animals that don't let him. Will he be able to eat some children? Read this book and you will see. I like this book because the author describes the characters very well and because it has very good illustration. My favorite part was when the crocodile hides from the kids by disguising himself as a palm tree, as a seesaw and as a chair, read this book. I recommend this book to boys and girls who like funny and humorous books. Read this book.

“The Enormous Crocodile” is about a greedy, green crocodile that lived in an oozy river with another crocodile that was not as big as him. The enormous crocodile wanted to eat for supper juicy little children . So he left the jungle and went where there were juicy little children. His first tricky trick to eat the children was to go where the children get coconuts (palm trees) and he made himself look like a palm tree with coconuts and big leaves. So when the children went to get coconuts they would climb him and snap! Will his plan be successful?. Do you think his tricky tricks work?. How does this story end? I enjoyed this book because it has suspense and I like suspense. What causes suspense is that sometimes you wonder can he make his dream come true?. My favorite part is the tricky tricks because their were unique. The funniest part is the end but the question is. Will he get what he wants or what he deserves?. If you want to find out read this book. I recommend this book to anyone that likes suspense and animals. This book is perfect for seven years old and under. Roald Dahl is a fantastic writer because he has great characters, great settings and you will never ever find an author like him.

This story is about a crocodile who was greedy and mean and lived in the biggest brownest muddiest river in Africa ( you feel you are there because you see the drawing) . He wanted to eat children. The first time wasn't so easy so the second time he had lots of tricks for the children. He acted like a sea-saw. Did he eat all the children? What were his tricks? Did he have what he deserved for being mean? If you want to know more, read the book. I enjoyed this book because when he did his tricks he looked a little bit real. I liked it because I was afraid something bad was going to happen to the children. I liked the way Roald Dahl writes because he creates suspense. I liked the words that Roald invented like: “Whoozing Phisiiing Oompa Loompas Rainbow drops” and more. I recommend this book to anyone who likes a bit of mystery and likes doing tricks to persons and for second graders and upper levels.
