KrindleKrax

by Philip Ridley

Lizard Street is full of oddball characters — but none quite like Ruskin Splinter. He’s small, skinny, knock-kneed, and squeaky-voiced… not exactly hero material. No one at school thinks he’s up to much — except Corky, the kindly caretaker.

So when Corky shares the legend of Krindlekrax, the monstrous crocodile lurking in the sewers, Ruskin sees his chance to shine. But facing a beast that big? It’ll take more than courage to prove he’s not so unlikely after all.
