Description

From the illustrator of the classic edition of Snow-White and the Seven Dwarfs


On a ridge above the Kalihari,


Lion naps, until Mouse bumbles into him,


willy-nilly, startling him awake.


After a show of teeth, Lion is softened


by Mouse's pledge of loyalty


and sets him free.


When a cold moon brings a humbling lesson,


Lion comes to recognize


Mouse's keen skill, and deeper kindness.


Mouse and Lion, Aesop's fabled duo,


renew their ancient bond


in this warm retelling by Rand Burkert,


illuminated by the authentic natural detail


of Nancy Ekholm Burkert's art.
