Solomon Crocodile & his friend Mortimer are bored. They want to find some fun, but what can they do? Tree-climbing is tricky, chasing lizards doesn`t end well & flying turns out to be a lot harder than it looks. But then they spot the biggest hippo in the river. Just imagine the splash he`d make if two naughty crocodiles were to surprise him! But Solomon & Mortimer are about to get a whole lot more than they bargained for.. . Sure to delight fans of the original Solomon Crocodile, which has sold over 100, 000 copies worldwide, Solomon & Mortimer is a warm, funny & charming tale from the Kate Greenaway Medal winning Catherine Rayner, which young children will ask for again & again.
