  • What Happens When a Lion Lies Down? Meet Louis the lion and Willy the wildebeast....: An Illustrated Children's Book; Perfect Bedtime Story

What Happens When a Lion Lies Down? Meet Louis the lion and Willy the wildebeast....: An Illustrated Children's Book; Perfect Bedtime Story Kindle Edition

by Claire Sharp (Author), Andrew Torrens (Illustrator) Format: Kindle Edition
4.6 out of 5 stars (32)
A story about Louis the lion.
Louis is not very good at being a lion... until one day he meets Willy....

Here is an extract from the beginning of the book...

Meet Louis. What you can see is that Louis is a lion. What you can’t see is that Louis is not very good at being a lion. Lions are strong, brave, fierce and powerful. Louis is none of these things.

Louis, like lots of boy lions, lives with a pride of girl lions. They love Louis but they always tease him about his lack of lion abilities. They say that boy lions should be the Kings of the African Plains leading all the other animals, but that no-one would ever follow Louis.

This is an illustrated book perfect for a bedtime story for young children.

    What an amazing and funny leader Louis was! -Not at all like a male lion.

    I chose to give this five stars because I felt that the author came up with a very clever storyline and a very good example for little kids to learn that not everyone ir animal acts like others in the sense like Louis did in this short picture book. So, I wish to recommend this book for these reasons alone. I received this ebook for free and in return, here is my honest review. Great work Claire ! By Angela

    ~~Louis is not your typical lion~~

    Louis is not your typical lion as he is not either brave or strong! And, he is not a leader, either. Willy, a wildebeest is also not typical of his species, either. One day they both meet and this is the really cute part of this story.

    As the author states, this is a story for children ages 2 - 6 and also for P - 1.

    I thought it was an excellent story and showed some interesting traits of animals..

    Most highly recommended.

    Text:

    This was such a great idea. It's a hilarious concept, and it was quite well done. I think just a little editing could have made a big difference though, as there were a few grammatical errors. Nonetheless, I did quite enjoy this book, and I found it to be a very original, creative, and entertaining story.

    Illustrations:

    Lovely artwork, and plenty of it. The style was perfect for the story - the illustrator did an outstanding job. Due to formatting issues, the pictures were rather small on my devices (both mobile and PC), which was unfortunate. I think there was a lot that I missed just because the pictures weren't large enough.

    Cover:

    Gorgeous. I LOVE the whole concept. It's perfect for the story and it's just so beautifully executed as well. The artwork is stellar and the text treatment is spot-on.

    Louise isn't very good at being a Lion, but he can still be a leader! Nice short story on finding how to be the best YOU in your own way.
