What Does Little Crocodile Say At the Birthday Party is a delightfully fun book for young kids about a little crocodile and his birthday party. We get to hear all kinds of fun and interesting sounds at his party. The rhyming prose is fun and the illustrations are a blast! Great book for little kids!
Thanks Netgalley and the publisher for the opportunity to review this advanced review copy (ARC) in exchange for my honest review on the book!

This is an adorable children’s book with beautiful illustrations, and enough actions words where parents can act them out and children can giggle in response. This will definitely be the perfect book to read before parties and festivities.

there is always need for birthday storybooks. This one was cute, but I wanted to learn a little more about main character so series can continue.

What Does Little 🐊 Crocodile Say At the Birthday Party Say. .I loved this cute little children’s book. Children ages 4-7 love to have someone read quickly children’s books. I love reading books to my grandchildren. I cannot wait to read this one to her.

A fun, illustrated picture book geared towards preschoolers.
Lots of fun interactive sounds. Brightly colored fun crocodile & other animal pictures. My kids enjoyed it.
I was able to preview this ARC book. All opinions are my own.

I was drawn to this book because of its colorful front cover and adorable illustrations. "What Does Little Crocodile Say At the Birthday Party?" is a sweet, simple story about a little crocodile on the day of his birthday party. The author focuses on the sounds and feelings throughout Little Crocodile's exciting day and the pictures in this story add the perfect touch! I think this would be a wonderful book to read to young children in a music class or early elementary classroom. The students, whether they be toddlers or early elementary age, could use instruments and/or movements to accompany the sound effects throughout the story. Looking forward to sharing this story with teachers and getting my hands on a copy in 2024!
"Fanks" to Eva Montanari, Penguin Random House Canada, Tundra Books and #NetGalley for the ARC and opportunity to read and review this adorable children's book!

This book was adorable. My son loved saying the sound effects and all the colorful drawings. I like how this book describes a party from start to finish. It would be a great way to teach a child what to expect at a birthday party if they have never been!

What a classic! So cute and just a must have. I definitely would buy this one for my daughter to have! I loved the pictures and story.

Such a fun book that can be used in schools everywhere. Crocodile is getting ready for the birthday party and all the sounds and feels that go along. All is well until a balloon goes "pops" and Croc goes"waaaaaah!". Many opportunities for teachers and music teachers to use instruments to help recreate each step of the book.
Simple text, simple illustrations that all come together to celebrate big!
My school students will really enjoy this one.

A sweet children's book that has a lovely text to picture ration and a good amount of visual interest for children. The text is simple and sweet, demonstrating all the things children need to know about for birthday parties, especially if they've never been to one before. (Including the scary things like balloons popping).
Very sweet.

This is a fun easy book. Perfect read for babies, toddlers, or emerging readers who are looking for a couple words on each page. This book is charming from start to end. While the story it self is simplistic, the art work creates a beautiful story that you can use to delve into the story further with kids if they wanted to. I also love utilizing different sounds in the book. Perfect if you have little one who wants to “read” with you.
Thank you so much to Penguin Random House Canada, Tundra Books, and Netgalley for allowing me to read an advance copy of this book.

This picture book is one that encourages participation. Each page invites an interactive response from the reader and the listener. They can join in one what each thing “says” and we loved that!

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for an ARC in exchange for my honest review.
This is a great book for some of our youngest readers! Sweet illustrations paired with the excitement, sounds, and feelings of a birthday party make this a lovely picture book. There are not many words per page, and it feels like a nice choice for children beginning to talk as it could encourage the completion of a sentence if the adult reader chose to pause and allow the little one to fill in the ending.

It is Little Crocodile's birthday! They are three years old and ready to celebrate with friends. This book is filled with birthday joy and - as always - a few burst balloons along the way. If you have a toddler in your life that will soon be having a birthday party - this would be a fun book to share with them. Since little ones can chime in with the noises, this should also work well for a toddler or preschool story time. Everyone likes blowing out candles!
I enjoyed the illustrations - they are delightful! And the little crocodile friend who says, "Fanks!" Also when our protagonist looks in the mirror at the beginning of the book.
Thank you to Net Galley and Penguin Random House Canada for an e-galley.

This book was difficult to follow as an adult; I would not recommend it to any child. It was a cute idea, but the execution fell short.

This is a cute little book! I enjoyed the fact that many of the worlds are simple and it also incorporates sounds. This is definitely a book that I would read in my kindergarten class!

A little Crocodile is preparing to enjoy his birthday party with his family and friends. "What Does Little Crocodile Say at the Birthday Party?" is filled with colorful illustrations and onomatopoeia technique which is a delightful read for toddlers.
This is such an adorable and heartwarming book. A must have books to entertain toddlers!
Special thanks to Penguin Random House Canada, Eva Montonari and NetGalley for giving me the opportunity to review this book.

This book is best geared for children two years and younger. It has cute illustrations throughout that will catch their eye. This book introduces little ones to different sounds that we can hear throughout the day.
Thank you to Penguin Random House Canada, Tundra Books and NetGalley or providing me with a free electronic copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Cute book for young children. I enjoyed reading it with my 4 year old who enjoyed the pictures very much! We enjoyed discussing the sounds of the party and the cute animals that came to the little crocodile’s party. This would be a great book to read in a classroom and then have the children draw their own version of animals at the party and what one of them would “say”..The illustrations are especially well done and enjoyable. We had a good time discussing what each “child” might be thinking or feeling from their expression and body language in the illustration. Well done!

The book was cute! Very easy read for kids. My little guy loved it! He loves alligators/crocodiles and anything with teeth!
My only issue was the way it showed up on kindle. It split the pages in half. So the bottom half of one page was on the left side and the top half of the next page was on the right side. It was difficult to see the pictures in full.
