Tiger was feeling sleepy. As sleepy as sleepy can be. So sleepy, only one thing could help...Crocodile was feeling sleepy. As sleepy as sleepy can be. So sleepy, only one thing could help...
Tiger and Crocodile are both looking for a goodnight kiss in this clever flip book story. But the animals along the way don't seem very forthcoming! Perhaps it's those sharp little teeth that they can see when Tiger and Crocodile yawn. Then they see a sharp-toothed shadow... eek! But don't worry it's just Daddy Croc and Mummy Tiger, come to kiss their little ones goodnight.
A delightful, snuggly bedtime story that celebrates blended families and kindred spirits.
