☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis anthology issue contains multiple stories and educational features. One story follows a bus driver transporting two children and a blue bird character to Green Acres in Fort Delaware, where a mix-up causes them to arrive at the wrong location instead of their intended destination. Another feature, "Man-Eating Devil," describes the Nyo-Koko crocodile of the Zambezi River in Africa, detailing its hunting abilities, camouflage, dangerous tail, and symbiotic relationship with the African plover bird that cleans its teeth. The issue also includes a narrative about Uncle Morton and characters encountering a lost baby bird with a spotted breast that has been separated from its migration south.
Along the 2,200-mile Zambezi River in Africa, the crocodile known as Nyo-Koko commands fear among the natives—a swift, cleverly concealing hunter whose only friend is the small African plover that picks at his teeth. When the creature and his kind begin threatening the women of a riverside village, professional hunter Jack Cronin sets out to make the waters safe, though Nyo-Koko's alert feathered companions prove to be unexpected obstacles to his mission.
