Review: Croc Candy
Now, at fifteen, he is an inspiration to all those - young and older, who dare to dream even when they are a little different.
Angus loves Crocs and loves candy. But he finds reading and spelling hard.
He decides to do something that excites him and that he is interested in. Making Candy!
This is no easy feat. If at first you don’t succeed, then try, try again!
Encouraged by his mum to do things his way, Angus never gives up.
Claire Thompson with Croc Candy, tells how dyslexia didn’t stop this intelligent child from the northern part of Australia, from growing mentally and moving forward through his failed attempts to succeed at something he was passionate about.
Thompson's well-chosen words full of alliteration and assonance bounce with rhythm about the pages, in tune to Angus’ thoughts. We follow his repeated trials to success through fun-filled images.
Creative illustrations by Deborah Brown present a portrayal of Angus' and the Crocs’ emotions through fantastic facial expressions that reflect his attitude toward his efforts.
This optimistic picture book should lighten the thoughts of many people challenged by learning difficulties, and encourage them to continue looking at the world differently.
Angus has met with a Prime Minister, had a letter from the Queen and is a philanthropist, entrepreneur and speaker for the global charity, Made by Dyslexia.
He uses his successful candy business to help those in need in his community and continues to inspire.
