The Lion and the Magic Storyteller

"The fearless Lion growled, then he roared." But the lion in this inventive tale - which was inspired by real places and events - doesn't live far away in the wild, or even in a zoo. This rather special Lion stands proudly in a beautiful park, where one winter's day everyone starts talking about a magic storyteller called Oscar who has come to town. As the seasons pass, the Lion's hopes of seeing the mysterious visitor are dashed by a sudden discovery, and he realises the only chance his own story will ever be told is to do what a lion does best - roar!! Packed with delightful illustrations, this book will excite young children's imagination and help stimulate their interest in some of the English language's most loved stories. Sarah Crabtree writes stories for both children and adults, and was a finalist in the prestigious Eyelands Book Awards 2019.
