Product Information

Aki-kroko haluaa kokeilla ylleen tyttöjen hepeneitä, pahaksi onneksi muutama hyeena tulee paikalle naureskelemaan. The support of other creatures in the swamp to put on the show is what makes the story worth the read. There are specific pieces for specific body parts; but body parts do NOT define gender, therefore there are no gendered clothing. g. with this one mr5 sees nothing wrong with the crocodile in a dress and pearls until the hyenas tell him it’s something not acceptable so the message is kind of lost- and the message actually becomes not everyone will accept you.

Jeanne Willis' characteristic rhyming couplets keep things bouncy and moving along at a fast pace, while Stephanie Laberis' illustrations are teeming with riotous colour and splendour. However Cliff is told to be himself which is the message of the book, to be yourself, and in the end it is proved that he had nothing to be afraid of all along as, of course, his dad accepts him for who he is. Other than that, I try my best to draw every day and dream of one day writing and illustrating my own picture book. It does this with a light touch that captures perfectly the warm and love-centric logic at the heart of the story: 'My friend, why sit there worrying about "What if?There are, however, some very moving lines: “I just feel happier in heels and don’t you LOVE this dress? The story follows Cliff the little crocodile who finds a pile of clothes – “a slinky frock, stilettos and a string of pretty pearls”. But the mean hyenas laugh at him and tell him to stop dressing like a girly or they’ll go and tell his Dad. The choices of anthropomorphic characters are very clever: hyenas are the nasty bullies, and the fierce crocodiles aren’t that tough after all.

If you want to do something, but you don’t because you’re worried about what people will say then you aren’t good to your own heart. Jeanne Willisin ja Stephanie Laberiksen "Kroko mekossa" (Mäkelä, 2019) on suvaitsevaisuuden merkitystä korostava runomuotoinen tarina Aki-krokotiilista, joka haluaisi pukeutua punaiseen mekkoon ja korkkareihin, mutta ei isänsä reaktiota pelätessään oikein uskalla tehdä niin. The author took liberties with bullies who are not native creatures of the swamp but are mean just the same. The sense of fun is emphasised with the illustrations by Stephanie Laberis which illuminate the narrative and bring the characters to life.Cannot be overstated: clothes are inanimate objects and do NOT possess genders; therefore, there are no girl/boy clothes. Jeanne Willis’s text is witty and fast-paced, keeping children interested and skillfully navigating them through the story.

Cliff the crocodile discovers a slinky frock and some fabulous peals and heels, and just has to try on the outfit. Upeasti toteutettu kerronta yhdenvertaisuudesta, itsensä ilmaisusta ja ennen kaikkea omassa nahassaan viihtymisestä! It is a story about love, and its overriding message is to be brave – your friends will stand by you, and your parents won’t even care what you wear because they love you unconditionally. Next, we are introduced to Dad; he looks like a baddy with a patch over one eye, leather jacket flying as he roars around on his motor bike; none of the other animals dares challenge him. It became evident during the conversation that they had never even considered, for example, a boy wanting to wear a dress, or for that matter, any other challenges to stereotypes.Uma história importante nos dias que correm, porque nem todos os meninos têm de vestir calças assim como todas as meninas não têm de gostar de vestidos!
