Rose Meets Mr Wintergarten
Author(s): Bob Graham
Rumor has it that Rose’s neighbor, Mr. Wintergarten, has a pet crocodile. Rumor has it he eats children. So when Rose’s ball flies over his fence, she’s scared to retrieve it. But when she bravely sets out to go where no child has gone before, she discovers the startling truth about her neighbor: he’s friendly! Bob Graham’s illustrations add humor and vitality to a story that shows how very deceiving appearances can be.
