The Lizard Man of Crabtree County

by Lucy Nolan, Jill Kastner (Illustrator)

Poor James Arthur is bored to death. Nothing exciting ever happens in Crabtree County. That is, until he learns that a giant lizard man has been spotted in the same area where he's just been. It's no surprise to poor James Arthur with his luck that he saw nothing. And that's just the beginning of all the excitement that strangely passes him by—and every time only by minutes.

I especially like the illustrations of the people. The rest of it was very forgettable

A book my 6 yr old as well as my twin 3 yr olds loved. A solid reading level 1 book, this cute story keeps all ages engaged with the bright colorful pictures and cute story. A great addition to any children's library.

This was really quite funny. You have to look at the pictures to see some of what's going on, but we had a good laugh with this one.

James becomes the unwitting source of wild rumors that a Lizard Man has appeared in his quiet rural community.
