This is a book designed for seven-to twelve-year-olds. It is a feel-good book about how one good turn deserves another, as a privilege and not a right.
A foolish boy makes some very bad decisions, leading to a face-to-face meeting with crocodiles in their territory. By good fortune, the largest crocodile in the creek saves the boy.
This book also reminds us that good planning and sensible actions do more good than harm.
