Miss Polly and the Crocodile

Winner - Children’s/Juvenile Early Readers/Chapter Books (Fiction) category Next Generation Indie Book Awards 2022
'A quirky and magical story that somehow manages to deal with real problems children encounter. Such lovely prose and illustrations that children will be drawn to. Written in the vein of Miss Pigglewiggle, the Miss Polly books may become a children's classic as well.'
   -Susan Weintrob, Next Generation Indie Book Awards Judge

Miss Polly and the Crocodile is a quirky and whimsical book. Based in a magical town, the characters face real world problems, with a happy outcome. Challenging expectations and casual judgments, Miss Polly explores themes of peer pressure and forgiveness... and the power of kindness. The story tells of a princess who is no better than she should be and the trouble her behaviour causes for her kingdom in general and for a gifted inventor in particular. Faced with bullying and brattishness there seems little hope, but the very special Miss Polly Dolly and her close friend Mrs Adams – who is not quite what we expect – set about changing things for the better.

Enjoy your visit to the magical kingdom of Loopaloo!

About the author: Felicia Thomas grew up in Kent and moved to County Kerry almost 30 years ago. She has had many different jobs, from working in retail to being a wedding celebrant and raising her family. In 2013 she had an accident that was life changing. She used her hobby of art as rehabilitation and, while learning to use her hand again, she wrote the beginning of this story. She supplies several gift shops with her art, paints more little characters and writes stories about them.
