THERE'S A LION IN THE FOREST!
In a funny story that cleverly illustrates the importance of gathering evidence before drawing conclusions, the animals of a tropical forest claim there's a lion among them, even though there are no lions in South America... or are there?
When Toucan hears a deep, growly growl one day, he's alarmed! It can only mean one thing: THERE'S A LION IN THE FOREST! Capybara and Coati scoff at first - everyone knows there aren't any lions in South America because they live on savannas, not in tropical forests! But when the growls keep coming, and they get a glimpse through the trees of a long, terrifying tail and a thick, menacing mane, they're not so sure.
Young readers will get a kick out of sleuthing along with the forest animals as they try to get to the bottom of this sweetly suspenseful mystery in a rhythmic text that begs to be read aloud.
