Is there nothing Lyle can't do? The beloved big-city crocodile introduced in The House on East 88th Street and Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile returns in this 2010 counting book for youngsters up to 5, styled as a story about dogs. Or maybe it's a dog story disguised as a counting book? Either way, Lyle takes a job as a dogwalker, starting with a frisky retriever named Gwendolyn. Over the next ten days he picks up a new customer every day, each of whom we meet with a portrait and description, until poor Lyle has a full-blown pack on his leashes. Still, he manages to keep everyone together—even after Sniffy flushes out a squirrel. Penned by Lyle's creator Bernard Waber, this delightful read-aloud is illustrated by Bernard's daughter Paulis, to whom the first Lyle book was dedicated back in 1962.
