The funny tale of a brave little mouse and a very snappy crocodile

Based on the best-selling picture book by Faustin Charles and Mike Terry, this tale of true friendship is written especially for 3 - 7 year olds. Adapted for the stage by Bill Davies, with music and lyrics by Frank Goodhind.

Deep in the forest, by the banks of a great river, lived a large crocodile. He was a very selfish crocodile and he wouldn’t share the river with any other creature. He thought it was HIS river! So, the animals stayed away.

But, one day there was a terrible scream, - the crocodile had a toothache. Nobody dared to help him, until a brave little mouse found a clever way to solve this snappy dilemma!

This is a funny, heart-warming tale with a very happy ending, which reminds us all that the smallest act of kindness often has the greatest impact.

Our storytellers use song, music and a host of beautiful puppets to bring this watery adventure to life. This is a must-see for 3 - 7 year olds, their grown-up’s, and of course, anybody with a pet crocodile!
