Reviews

[Sean Harding · Rating 3 out of 5]

A pleasant little picture book here for the young, and young at heart, and one that is apparently popular in days of you're, although I have no memory of it from when I was young.

My 11 year old said while reading “this book makes no sense.” He might be right.

Checked this out from the library and read it to my 4 month old son. He enjoyed the pictures and has been roaring like a lion ever since we first read it and talked about lions.

Loved this - I missed out on reading it as a child, but it's a fun story with striking illustrations.
