Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile

Also available in:

Everyone in the neighborhood loves Lyle the crocodile—except for a cranky neighbor and his nervous cat!

Lyle lives with the Primm family in the house on East 88th Street in New York City. He enjoys helping with chores and playing with neighborhood kids. He's the happiest crocodile any family ever had . . . until one neighbor insists that Lyle belongs in a zoo! It will take all of Lyle's charm—and courage—to reveal the hero and friend behind that big crocodile smile.
