The Story of King Lion

'This story is clever for the way in which it makes children think about acts of giving and sharing through a variety of much-loved animals, each bringing an offering we would traditionally associate with them almost creating a game of recognition and association. Sibylle von Olfers depicts the animal kingdom in decorative art nouveau style ... Her precise stylised illustrations of plants have the feel of gentle nineteenth century botanical prints ... a joy to read and share with older readers who can appreciate its finer points.'
– Armadillo

'[A]n entertaining story that shows the habits of the animal kingdom.'
