Mostly 5 stars because it has something similar to my name and I loved reading it as a child and knowing that maybe someday I could get a key chain with my name on it someday.

Childhood favorite. From an early age, I loved descriptions of food. When they are making their carrot stew, I just fell in love with, what I assumed, would be the taste. To me, it tasted like my grandmother's buttery chicken noodle soup.

Somehow, the lion loses his taste for meat and develops an appetite for whole food/plant-based meals haha. A sweet little story.

As a kid I just saw a couple of helpful bunnies making dinner for a scrawny lion.
It did not click that the lion wanted to eat the bunnies.
Had I know, this probably would not have been a favorite of mine.
But I didn't, so all's well that ends well.

A classic. Better with older preschoolers who can sit through the whole narrative.

Fat as butter and sleek as silk! The words just roll off the tongue.

The nephew brought this extra book to be read tonight. He had one wordless book and he said that didn't count toward our books read tonight. So we gave the Tawny Lion a turn. He has read it before and I had not. I love that the rabbits and their vegetarian stew were able to sate that ol' lion. To think that carrot stew would fill you up more than meat. I think this is probably the first vegetarian story.
Anyway, the nephew loved the book. He gave it 5 stars. I thought it was a cute story and the art work was decent. It's from the early 50s. I think it would mean more if I was younger. I did like those wily rabbits. They were sneaky and crafty and took out a predator without any violence. It's a pretty good moral.
