Once upon a time, there was a story in this book. But a lion ate it all.

Narrated by a tall, handsome and ever-so-dashing lion, dressed head to toe in fancy dress, this is a hilarious story of how a greedy lion ate all the picture book characters and then lies about it. The problem is, he just can't resist boasting about it!

Dressed in his not-so-convincing disguise, Lion beckons the reader closer to find the culprit, while a plucky little rabbit hides in the pages, shouting out warnings until he bravely confronts our narrator about his crime. Will Lion ever learn his lesson?

A hilarious story with plenty of opportunities for group participation, and an overarching theme of kindness, empathy and forgiveness. Includes a mysterious bite-mark out of the front cover... now who could have done that?

"There has to be a lion hiding somewhere in this book.
Dreamy, clever, awesome, strong.
Come in closer for a look..."
