The Enormous Crocodile

Main Ideas

• Roald Dahl's book "The Enormous Crocodile" tells the story of a greedy and cunning crocodile who dreams of eating children. The main idea of the work is to expose the evil intentions and tricks that ultimately lead to the villain's defeat.
• One of the key concepts is the theme of justice and retribution. Despite his devious plans and confidence in his own superiority, the crocodile faces opposition from other animals who unite to thwart his evil deeds.
• The book also explores the theme of friendship and cooperation. Jungle animals like Trunky the Elephant, Humpy-Rumpy the Hippopotamus, and others demonstrate how joint efforts can overcome evil and protect the innocent.
• Roald Dahl uses vivid imagery and humor to emphasize moral lessons that deceit and evil will always be punished, while kindness and honesty prevail.
