Review of The Enormous Crocodile - Rated 5/5
The Enormous Crocodile is a hilarious and humorous story for children to read. The story is about a mean crocodile with `secret plans and clever tricks' to eat the children in the village. He disguises himself as many different things to trick the children but he does not succeed. He thinks he is really intelligent but the jungle animals have `secret plans and clever tricks' of their own.

We liked the ending of the story the most, because it was sudden and unexpected. If you read this story you will find why. We also liked when the other animals decided that they had plans of their own.

Although, we did think that Roald could have made this book a bit more exciting by having more surprises and mysteries.

We think that this book would good for ages 5 - 11. This is great book for adults to read to younger children. We think that people who enjoy humorous stories, fiction stories and plots will enjoys this book.

We would give this book 5 stars.


Fun for everyone - Rated 4/5
Plot: In the muddiest river in Africa, lives an Enormous crocodile and a NotSoBig one as well. The Enormous Crocodile is the greediest creature in the whole jungle and he loves to eat children. He is a terrible boaster and the other animals decide to give him a lesson he won't forget...

Fact: Roald Dahl visited Africa, in the year of 1938, as a part of his job (working for the Shell Oil Company) before he fought as a RAF pilot in the WWII, and that's probably where he got the inspiration from.

Rating and recommendation: I would rate it 7/ 10; I would recommend it to all Roald Dahl fans, especially 5 - 8 year olds.


Our 4 year old loves it! - Rated 5/5
I've actually never heard the whole CD. But the first time our son heard it (as he was going to sleep), after about 10 minutes he got out of bed walked into the living room and said "This is a really cool story. Thanks, Dad!" That's good enough for me. Numerous listenings later, he still loves it.


Memories - Rated 2/5
I remember reading this when I was younger and it always annoyed me, it seemed such hard work reading it at the time and I actually did not like it.


Wonderful reading of a fantastic story. - Rated 5/5
Stephen Fry has one of those voices that makes you want to listen. This reading of Roald Dahl's wonderful Enormous Crocodile is brilliant. Fry brings the characters to life.

The enormous crocodile himself has a delicious nastiness which almost makes you wish he succeeds in eating the children and the small crocodile has authentic incredulity at his larger associate's prediliction for crunchy little boys.

But most of all... my little 3 year old boy loves listening to it over and over and over!
