The Quiet Crocodile Goes to the Beach (Hardback) Natacha Andriamirado (author), Delphine Renon (illustrator)

Fossil the quiet crocodile loves to go to the beach with his friends. Fippo the Hippo, Sonny the Bunny, Ryan the Lion, and all the rest jump right in and splash about in the waves while Fossil watches from the shore. Could it be that Fossil is scared of the water? What happens when Fossil finally joins them? Is he really as quiet as he seems? Readers can find, name, and count all of Fossil’s boisterous friends, as well as the rings, racquets, fishing nets, and shells hidden in the delightful drawings.
