Rendition To Books The Lion Who Saw Himself in the Water

The Lion Who Saw Himself In The Water.
This charming tale, possible to overlook or to consign to the purview of two to seven year olds, is for all ages.
A butterfly whispers in the ear of a thirsty lion while the other animals in the jungle look on. The lion sees that what is frightening him, is merely a reflection, and a reflection of himself at that.
One may wonder about mirrors and reflections and the symbolism of butterflies but if you are five years old, you will fall in love with this tale and the colours and the drawings and that will be enough.

This story is a terrible non-sence !
