A brave 'crocoduck' saves his family from becoming duck dinner. Raised from an egg by Mother Duck, Guji Guji is quite content with his life as a duckling, despite the fact that he doesn't look anything like his brothers. Then he meets three nasty creatures who not only convince him that he is, like them, a crocodile, but also try to persuade him to deliver his duck relatives for their dinner. "Chen's vivid characters - the exuberantly befuddled 'crocoduck' and his adopted family, the riotously creepy crocodiles that loom like shadows - are rendered with wit and warmth ... Love overcomes all differences here, and Guji Guji's antics are laugh-out-loud adorable." The New York Times Book Review "Chen's story of love, acceptance and self-discovery gives every sign of becoming a well-worn favourite." Publishers Weekly "This story is a winner! When, after a brief silence once the story is read, comes 'Can we read it again, please?' you know it will be a favourite - and it is." Daily Chronicle
