BR 2-10: The Clumsy Crocodile (Sims, 2002)

"Oh no! Customers!" she cried and rushed over to help them up. (p. 46)


When Cassy the clumsy crocodile gets a job at Everglades Department Store, she certainly makes things happen. She worked at China Department, but she had to change her working place into Toy Department because she broke 60 cups and saucers and made the customer angry. But she went wrong again at Toy Department, too. She was sent to the Food Hall, but there, things went from bad to worse. Her frequent fails made her boss very cross, and he tried not to let her work anymore. Cassy cried and cried, and asked her boss to let her work there again. She managed to convince him and tries to work carefully.
