Will vines sprout out his ears? Will his skin turn pink? This crocodile has a wild imagination that kids will love.With bold color and beautiful sense of design, Greg Pizzoli's picture book debut takes this familiar childhood worry and gives us a true gem in the vein of I Want My Hat Back and Not a Box.
