Lion’s Lunch? by Fiona Tierney


Tierney, Fiona Lion’s Lunch? Illustrated by Margaret Chamberlain. Chicken House (Scholastic), January 2010. PICTURE BOOK. $17.99. When little Sarah strolls into the jungle, she encounters a hungry lion who is desperate to prove that she does not belong, so that he can eat her for his lunch. When Sarah proves she has a unique talent (drawing), Lion doesn’t like his portrait and wants to know what he must do to be better inside and out. With delicious vocabulary words and a multi-pronged message, Lion’s Lunch will be used in many different ways. EL – ADVISABLE. Cindy, Library-Teacher.

I agree. I just discovered Lion's Lunch and see many classroom uses. A good pick for a school library.
