|  | I Crocodile by Fred Marcellino
Napoleon takes a trip to Egypt and can't help bringing back a crocodile along with his other souvenirs. Everyone in Paris loves the crocodile and wants to make him as comfortable as possible.

He misses his usual meals of flamingo or buffalo--what's he supposed to do with a croissant? He just wants to go back to Egypt, but that might not be so easy....With bold color illustrations throughout. AUTHOR: Fred Marcellino
