What is Crazy Charlie about?

Charlie is a crocodile with an enormous appetite and a fearsome reputation. He gobbles up everything in his path, leaving everyone trembling whenever he appears. But one day, Charlie’s troublesome teeth begin to fall out, and suddenly the mighty crocodile cannot eat a thing. As he searches for a solution, an unexpected visitor may have just the answer he needs. With bold illustrations and playful humour, this entertaining picture book turns a frightening creature into a surprisingly helpless and memorable character.
