Customer Reviews

Great Book!

We love this book! Set in France, this is a story of a Lion who just doesn't understand why all his friends are afraid of him after he walks out of the zoo and into the streets. It is one of my 3 yr old's favorites, and mine too!

Bonjour, Happy Lion!

My two-year-old loves Happy Lion, and her dad & I love reading it with her. It is a kick to hear her exclaim "Bonjour, Happy Lion!" and "Au revoir, Happy Lion!" on cue. The pictures are nice and the story is engaging. We recently bought five copies to keep on hand as gifts for young friends.

Family tradition

This book was read to me as a child. I in turn read it to my children. And now we have the joy of sharing it with our grandchild. A wonderful story.

The Happy Lion

Such a fun book for kids of all ages. Especially if you use a fun French accent for the Lion's voice:)
