- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5What a twist at the end of this book!I love this book, but ... why is everyone so WHITE???
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Waking up one day, a crocodile goes through his morning activities in this wordless picture-book, from brushing his teeth to eating his breakfast. Heading out the door, his commute begins, taking him across the city on public transportation. This professional crocodile is heading to work... but what and where is work?Originally published in Italy as Professione coccodrillo, this charming picture-book features an engaging story, one with a humorous surprise ending. Although credited to author Giovanna Zoboli - no doubt the creator of the story outline - the narrative here rests on illustrator Mariachiara Di Giorgio's artwork, which is beautifully expressive. I loved the many instances in which passers-by surreptitiously watch the crocodile in their midst, as if trying to figure out what he is doing there. I also loved the inclusion of the occasional other animal commuter in the illustrations. Recommended to anyone who enjoys wordless picture-books, or who is looking for "translations" of Italian and/or European children's books.
