Lion Learns a Lesson

Boastful Lion learns the importance of friendship and teamwork in vivid follow up to Penguin’s Party Problems

Meet Lion. Lion loves to be the best--and he especially loves to let people know it. After boasting to his friends that he can do anything, he enters a plant competition to grow the best plant. But things don’t go according to plan. . . . At his wit’s end, he turns to his friends for their help. Lion soon learns that success can be defined in more ways than one, and that sometimes there are more important things in life than simply being the best.
