The Happy Lion

Wonderful feel good message about learning who you are, and finding happiness and a real friend. There is huge nostalgia for this classic title which is being re-issued in a larger, high quality hardback format with full bleed inside illustration. Appealing and recognisable cover with inside artwork using minimal colours alternating with black and white, a style now firmly back in fashion. More than 50 years after its first publication this title is still a firm favourite, making it an ideal gift from both grannies or those who love the retro style. French setting and expressions in both text and pictures introduce an international and timeless feel. Poster available.

The lion at the little French zoo is a favourite of all the townspeople. Every day they stop by to feed him tidbits and say, 'Bonjour, Happy Lion.' Naturally, when the lion finds his door open, he decides it would only be proper to visit all his friendly neighbours in return. But, wait-sacre bleu! Why is everyone fleeing in terror? More than 50 years after its first publication this title is still a firm favourite, making it an ideal gift from both grandparents or those who love the retro style. Winner of the inaugural German Book Prize 1956.
