Once upon a time, in a faraway jungle, there lived a mischievous crocodile named Crocky. Crocky loved to play tricks on the other animals in the jungle, but he was also very artistic. He loved to color with his crayons and draw pictures of the things he saw in the jungle.

One day, Crocky had an idea. He would throw a party for all the animals in the jungle, and they could play games and have fun around a big campfire. So, Crocky set to work making invitations for all his animal friends. He used his crayons to draw pictures of the games they would play, like matching cards and following the curve of a winding path.

When the big day arrived, all the animals gathered around the campfire, dressed in their finest cloaks. Crocky was dressed as a clown, with a red nose and a big, floppy hat. The cubs of the jungle were especially excited, as they had never been to a party before.

As the night went on, the animals played games, told stories, and roasted marshmallows over the campfire. Crocky's crayon drawings came to life, as the animals followed the winding path, matched the cards, and had a grand old time.

In the end, all the animals agreed that Crocky's party was the best one they had ever been to. They all went to bed with big smiles on their faces, dreaming of the next time they would get to play and have fun with Crocky and their friends.

And that, my dear children, is the story of Crocky the crocodile and his crayon party. The end.
