But Frederick has troubles of his own.
Just as a batch of crocodile eggs are stolen from a research lab, Frederick’s uncle goes missing. Where has Uncle Niall gone? And what is the significance of the crocodile eggs?
It’s up to Teter Mek and Frederick to find out …
Suitable for children aged 4-10 years old, following the reading Jasmin will hostan art & craft workshop based around the book. For younger children, there will be an array of colouring-in activities relating to the book, while older children will get the opportunity to make their very own crocodile egg!
