A hungry lion discovers friendship and soup
Good Condition – vintage book with light cover, spine and edge wear.
Tawny Scrawny Lion is always hungry and spends his days chasing the other animals. Their lives change when a clever rabbit invites him home for carrot stew and introduces him to a very different way of eating and living. Kathryn Jackson's classic Little Golden Book turns a predator's enormous appetite into a warm, funny story about hospitality, friendship and sharing. Gustaf Tenggren's expressive illustrations give the savannah animals memorable personalities, while the repetitive storytelling makes the book an enduring read-aloud favourite for young children.
