Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile (Lyle the Crocodile)

Product Information

Nell Minow, writing for RogerEbert.com, was more positive in her review of the film, giving it a score of 3 out of 4 stars. She wrote: " Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile is a bit too long for a family movie, with some unnecessary complications toward the end, and it's not quite up to the Paddington level of movie adaptations of classic children's books. But it is a warm-hearted family film with great musical numbers that will make another generation of kids hopefully search the attic on the chance that they might find a singing crocodile."

Overall, Lyle, the Crocodile is a charming and uplifting film that’s sure to put a smile on your face. Waber found that he was always thinking about children’s books and even enjoyed the periods between writing books because it allowed for adventurous thought. He preferred to write while in motion, such as on trains or subways, as it helped to shake ideas loose in his head. While skilled at writing and illustrating, he preferred writing due to the freedom it offered. Waber’s passion for children’s books led him to create several beloved books, including “The House on East 88th Street,”“Ira Sleeps Over,” and “Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile.”This is a sweet classic, published in 1962. As such, it has interesting historical aspects to it that we don't have anymore: milk is delivered in glass bottles, you must talk to the operator before making a telephone call, and the primary method of communication is via letter. Did you find any of the movie's scenes stressful or scary? How much scary stuff can young kids handle? He’s the happiest crocodile any home ever had...until one neighbor insists that Lyle belongs in a zoo! Mr. Grumps and his cat, Loretta, don't like crocodiles, and everything Lyle does to win them over seems to go wrong.

Bernard Waber, who passed away in 2013 at the age of 91, was a renowned children’s book author and illustrator who became interested in creating children’s books after his art portfolio, containing children’s illustrations, caught several art directors’ attention. At the same time, Waber was reading aloud to his three children, which sparked his enthusiasm for the genre. His children, however, occasionally became uncomfortable with his constant focus on children’s books as they thought he, as an adult, should be more focused on adult literature.
