After A While Crocodile: Alexa's Diary

Author: Barr, Brady and Jennifer Keats Curtis

Illustrated by: Detwiler, Susan

Interest Level: K-3

Alexa and the other children at her escuela in Costa Rica have a special project: they are raising American Crocodiles. She names her croc Jefe, which means "boss," because he seems to be in charge of all the other babies. Alexa brings him chicken and frogs to eat, and writes about his progress in her diary. Soon, her little hatchling is as big as a loaf of bread. He has grown into a juvenile and it is time for Alexa to say goodbye and for Jefe to return to the wild.
