|comment=Hello Ruth Ng, very glad you and the children enjoyed Snip & Snap's weather dilemmas.
The crocs thought it was important that I should answer a few of your queries: it is indeed a strange house and the many doors are all in different rooms (just take a look at the decor and windows). They tell me that crocodiles — as I'm sure your children already know — are outdoor creatures who like to have as many doors as possible so they can nip outside whenever they feel the urge. The multiple door colours are due to the quarrelsome crocs inability to agree on anything. If you think this is odd you should see what happens to their house at the end of Red or Blue.
I also asked Snap how he was able to predict the weather and dress for it so quickly, but all I could get out of him was some nonsense about 'suspension of disbelief' before he ran off to make another sandwich.
I hope this clears everything up, but for bonus points have your children noticed that the crocs aren't quite as identical as the story would have you believe? Even without their shirts (something else they can't agree on) there's a way you can always tell them apart.
Happy reading,
Christyan Fox
