The sun begins to set on the savanna, and ten little lions must find their way home before dark. One by one, lion cubs emerge from trees, past bouncing monkeys and braying zebras. They cross a stream, watch a herd of thundering wildebeest, and explore the darkening beauty of the landscape. As the moon rises, ten little lion cubs curl up together just in time for bedtime, under their mothers’ watch in a space that is cozy and warm.
Why I like this book: Lion Lullaby is a counting book that counts the different animals in the Savannah and keeps the animals authentic to the environment. It’s also rhythmic and calming.
