by Leo Lionni
From inside front flap of dust jacket: "Cornelius was different from other crocodiles. He walked upright and could see things no other corcodile had ever seen before. He could see the fishes from above; he could see beyond the bushes. But others were not impressed... In this delightful tale Lionni tells us the story of an irresistible young crocodile whose open-hearted, open-minded outlook on life finally rubs off on his family." (Pantheon Books, New York)
