My Baby Crocodile av Gaëtan Dorémus
Sly story from France, about a crocodile mistaking a knight for a baby crocodile.
In an updated version of the Stone Soup tale, the various inhabitants of the apartment building have only an item or two in the fridges, but together, they have enough to make supper. And, because they are French, they make something delicious.
I enjoyed the diverse inhabitants and the warmth of their interaction. I never found city life to be particularly alienating, but this does make for a good story. The odd format of the book plays up the height of the building, and the detailed line drawings are amusing and unpretentious.

This is interesting as it does point out that people can get so busy that they can forget to have food for dinner. Tis book also points out that neighbors can come together even when there is little and with some thought, create something amazing to eat. then they realize that everybody on the block is doing the same thing as them. Genre, folklore, or contemporary realistic fitction
A modern take on the Stone Soup story. Translated from the French, it's an interesting take on the story and has an interesting format.
