Ice Cream Crocodile
Pickup available at The Shop

We love it because:
- Elvis is an utterly brilliant character, the kind of underdog you are rooting for from page one
- The circus setting gives the illustrations so much room to shine, full colour, full of life, and gloriously expressive
- It handles the "not fitting in" feeling with real lightness and warmth, no lectures, just a story that lands
- The rhyme and rhythm make it a brilliant read-aloud, it has that quality where the child starts finishing your sentences by the third read
- A square format that sits beautifully and looks wonderful on a bookshelf or as a gift
What's in the box:
- 1 x Ice Cream Crocodile paperback
Great for:
- Ages 3 and up
- Any child who has ever felt like they did not quite fit the expected mould (so, most of them)
- Fans of There's a Tiger on the Train looking for their next Mariesa Dulak fix
- Read-aloud sessions, bedtime stories, and that golden window when they will sit still for exactly one more book
- A lovely gift for birthdays, new siblings, starting nursery or school, or any moment that calls for a bit of extra encouragement
