Description
Meet Leo: part dandelion, part lion, ALL ego. This laugh-out-loud read-aloud proves even a weed can have delusions of grandeur. ROAR!
This is the tale of Leo, an ordinary dandelion . . .
"I beg your pardon! I am anything but ordinary. I am a dande-LION, king of all creatures, and I rule over all. See how this beast bows before me?
" Umm, I believe that cat is simply taking a nap on you?
"Pish posh. Wise readers know I am magnificent. ROAR! What do you say to that? . . . GASP! Why are you laughing? I order you to stop laughing!"
Tailor-made for hamming it up while reading aloud, The Legend of Leo is a silly and thought-provoking tale that has fun with our collective desire to think ourselves special. Be prepared for plenty of giggles and requests to make wishes on dandelions.
