Reach for the Moon, Little Lion

(3) K-3 Because he's unusually small, a lion is taunted mercilessly by a leopard, hippopotamus, and crocodile. Then, prompted by a helpful raven, the little lion uses a clever trick of perspective to show everyone he's big enough to touch the moon, leaving the bullies satisfyingly speechless. Thick, skillfully applied black outlines add texture to the expressive digital illustrations in this German import.
