«The Enormous Crocodile» is Roald Dahl's children's story, published by Penguin Books Ltd in paperback (36 pages, in English).
An enormous crocodile, the greediest in the river, decides a child would make a perfect lunch and heads to town to get one. Cunningly, he devises disguises to trick his prey, but the forest animals discover his plans and warn the children. Each trick ends in comic failure, and the crocodile ends up getting a good scare.
Illustrated by Quentin Blake; the colour edition was published in 2016, though the original story appeared in 1978.
Suitable for early readers aged 5 and up and for starting out with Roald Dahl's work.
