A LITTLE LION

By

Pub Date: March 25th, 1975
Publisher: Prentice-Hall

The little lion is played by Jenny, tagalong younger sister who is assigned the victim's role in a safari game and sent to wait in the woods until the other kids build a trap to catch her for the zoo. But instead of getting caught in the trap Jenny roars and scares the others away; by dinner time all they've caught is her pet cat and everyone urges Jenny to come back and be the lion tomorrow. Routine reassurances, for anyone who can believe that Jenny's roar could ever be that convincing.
