Solomon and Mortimer

by Catherine Rayner

Overview

Solomon Crocodile and his friend Mortimer are bored. They want to find some fun, but what can they do? Tree-climbing is tricky, chasing lizards doesn't end well, and flying turns out to be a lot harder than it looks. Then they spot the biggest hippo in the river. Imagine the splash he'd make if two naughty crocodiles were to surprise him! Sure to delight fans of the original Solomon Crocodile, which has sold over 100,000 copies worldwide, Solomon and Mortimer is a warm, funny, and charming tale which young children will ask for again and again.

Editorial Reviews

“Read-alouds with this book are going to be loud, so get ready.” ―Booklist on Solomon Crocodile

“Short, sweet, and tailor-made for story time, this perfectly paced tale of jungle mischief introduces a toddlerlike crocodile, Solomon, whose definition of "fun" is what other animals would probably label '"annoying.'” ―Publishers Weekly, Starred on Solomon Crocodile

“The juxtaposition of a roaring hippo with an extremely startled Solomon is priceless.” ―School Library Journal on Solomon Crocodile

“Let Solomon Crocodile loose during a story hour and get ready to roar.” ―Horn Book Magazine on Solomon Crocodile
