Caroline Crocodile goes to a baby shop to see if she can exchange her drooly brother, but finds that the baby panda is a fussy eater, the baby elephant too squirty--and her brother has reason to drool.

Cute Lesson in Appreciating What You Have submitted by Sara W on July 7, 2015, 9:58am Caroline Crocodile's baby brother is not exactly what she wants. For one, he smells. And he takes up all the room on Mama's lap. And he drools. Constantly. So one day while babysitting him while out shopping with Mama, Caroline trades him in at the Baby Shop, only to discover drawbacks to every other baby she tries.

The illustrations are adorable and quite funny, and the message that the grass isn't always greener comes through loud and clear (and cute.)
