Reach for this book when your child is facing their first big moral dilemma or struggling with the temptation to keep something that isn't theirs. It is a perfect tool for navigating the concept of honesty when the 'right' choice feels less fun than the 'wrong' one. Little Croc finds a purse full of coins and is immediately tempted by all the treats he could buy. However, as he encounters various animals, he is challenged to do the right thing. The story focuses on the internal struggle between self-interest and integrity. Written for the 3 to 6 age group, it uses humor and relatable desires (like wanting a big ice cream) to make the lesson on honesty feel like an achievement rather than a lecture.
