Chez Bob by Bob Shea
Chez Bob
By Bob Shea
Chez Bob is a cute story about a lazy but clever alligator looking for his next meal. He befriends the birds in his community, opens a bird restaurant on his nose so the birds will be conveniently located when he’s hungry, then joins a bird book club, coaches their soccer team, and protects the birds in stormy weather.
Bob does arrive at a crossroads, having to choose whether or not to eat the birds, and learns important lessons about kindness and friendship. Can alligators and birds really be friends?
