Cuddles the Friendly Crocodile

In the lush green jungle, where the sun shines bright, lives a big, friendly crocodile named Cuddles! Cuddles loves to splash in the river and play hide-and-seek with his animal friends.

“Roar!” says the lion, “Where are you, Cuddles?” But Cuddles is so good at hiding behind the tall reeds!

One day, Cuddles helps a little bird find her way home. “Thank you, Cuddles!” chirps the bird, flapping her tiny wings.
