After Anna The Horse and The Christmas Forest, here is another story book- with pictures again by Louise Fatio's husband Roger Duvoisin- with a catchy charm and joy. Living in the zoo of a small French town, the Happy Lion is a center of interest and affection from all- and especially Francois the keeper's son. But how the people behave when the lion gets out for a stroll, is a disgrace to the lion's benevolence until Francois comes along and shows them up. Grand sourire.
