Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile (Lyle the Crocodile)

Description:

About this item:

Everyone in the neighborhood loves Lyle the crocodile—except for a cranky neighbor and his nervous cat! Can lovable Lyle make everything right with his grumpy neighbors? A beloved classic read-aloud—now a major motion picture!

Lyle the crocodile lives in a house on East 88th Street in New York City. Lyle enjoys helping the Primm family with everyday chores, and playing with the neighborhood kids.

He’s the happiest crocodile any home ever had…until one neighbor insists that Lyle belongs in a zoo! Mr. Grumps and his cat, Loretta, don't like crocodiles, and everything Lyle does to win them over seems to go wrong.

It will take all of Lyle’s charm—and courage—to reveal the hero, and friend, behind the big, crocodile smile.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"Lyle is as lovable as ever and the story and colored pictures as nonsensical." Booklist, ALA —

5.0 out of 5 stars Love this book although slightly different from the movie

l. · April 5, 2024

Got for my boys who love the movie. The story was cute but a little off from the movie not sure if it’s supposed to be like that.

5.0 out of 5 stars Classic kid's book

This is a classic kid's book for toddlers. My children loved it and now my grandchildren do, too! This is a hardback book with a cover. Not much more to say, it's just what it says and the quality is great.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book, entertaining but not for beginners

T. · July 6, 2023

This is a great story but not for beginner readers. It is very long and wordy but amazing for an adult to read for a child. They summed up the story very well.

I don’t have any kids left in the house, but I have a friend named Lyle who I bought it for on his birthday. Lyle is 90!!!!’ and plays tennis twice a week. He loves the book and now reads it to his grandkids!!

4.0 out of 5 stars Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile (My Kindle Review)

V.t.R. · October 31, 2022

The follow up to “East 88th Street” now sees the Primm family and their loving crocodile Lyle return with a new problem: their neighbor Mr. Grump and his cat Loretta. It’s another winning book that’ll once again see Lyle bring separated but reunited again with his family, a new friend and learning not to judge a book by its cover, or scales 🐊. <b>A- (91%/Excellent)</b>

5.0 out of 5 stars Timeless Tale

L.S.A.o.C.Q. · September 13, 2022

I love the story of Lyle the Crocodile. I remember reading this as a child and it was fun to share the tale with my grandgirl. She had me read it so many times that I went back and ordered some of the other stories in the series. Then, we saw a preview that Lyle, Lyle The Crocodile will be in theaters in October. We are stoked!

Lovely story set in NY about a crocodile who lives with a family. It’s a bit old fashioned as in the mum shops & cooks all day but my toddler loves it so...

ワニ君と、共に暮らす一家のお話。皆と仲良く暮らすワニ君に降りかかる災難とは?B5版程度のペーパーバックとカセットのセットを購入。絵本のほうは白黒ベースの多色刷りという感じです。カセットはA面にページ繰りの注意音が入った朗読。B面は注意音無しの朗読と言う構成になっています。お子さんが一人で聞くには注意音がありがたいですよね。私のヒヤリング用には注意音がうっとうしいので助かります。本の活字は読みやすく、分量も程々。ある程度読めるようになったお子さん向けかもしれません。ワニ君、味があって可愛い。好きな本のうちの1冊。
