Review

This story is about a lion that loves it’s beautiful mane. But that love almost gets the lion and his friends in a lot of trouble. The illustrations are colorful and match the lion’s attitude about his mane. They also do a great job of letting a young reader see how scary the crocodile is without being too scary. This would be a good book for children that like a bit of a scare from the unexpected in their books.

Overall Book Score: good
