The Lion and the Mouse (2010)

In this wordless retelling of Aesop's beloved fable, award-winning artist Jerry Pinkney brings new depth to the timeless tale of The Lion and the Mouse. When a mighty lion spares a frightened mouse, an unexpected bond begins to form.

Set against the sweeping landscape of the African Serengeti, Pinkney's richly detailed illustrations tell a powerful story of courage, compassion, and the truth that no act of kindness is ever wasted.
