The Hippo And The Lion: (Children’s animal books , ages 6 10, kids books, Kindergarten Reader, Rhyming Picture books) (Rhyming Fables from the World of J. Adams)

The hippo, she lay half asleep on her back. She awoke in a fright as a twig gave a crack. Then out stepped a lion hungry for meat. He roared with excitement, “I’ll start with your feet!” “For years,” said the lion, “I’ve watched from the woods, Unable to catch you and feast on your goods.” He pounced–and looked even more fierce than before. She looked like a whale that had washed up on shore. From the author of Mother and the Mice comes a hilarious new tale about humility and the power of change. Kids will learn the timeless moral that pride goes before destruction and will be laughing along with the story as it unfolds. This whimsical tale comes to life with laugh-out-loud illustrations that enhance the clever rhymes throughout the story.
