One day an invitation
Came to number 24.
It was from a next-door neighbour
Who they'd never met before.
The children can't wait - a birthday party? What fun! But their next-door neighbour is not all he seems. For starters, there’s his large snout and very sharp teeth. Not to mention his scaly skin . . . Yes, there's no two ways about it, he's definitely a CROCODILE. Erm, crocodiles don't eat children, do they?
