I liked how the two animals went back and forth with each other. It is funny for kids to read because they pull tricks on each other the whole time. ( ) In this tale, a crocodile decides that he wants to eat a monkey. So he convinces him to go for a ride in the water and tries to drown the monkey to eat him. The monkey persuades the crocodile to take him back to land because he left the tastiest part of himself in a tree. By the end of the tale, the crocodile admits that the monkey is more cunning than himself. The unique feature of this book is that the relationship between the monkey and the crocodile seems to be lighthearted and friendly even though they are trying to outwit each other.
