I just have to say that this is one of the best books I have come across in years! I’d recommend it to all the Police, social workers, SLTs, parents, everyone!

Not only a nice story for kids with cool animals, but also I noticed the kids (7 years and 4 years) using the crocodile breath themselves to calm them, including during getting a line put in at hospital. I would recommend!
