Synopsis: In award-winning artist Jerry Pinkneys wordless adaptation of one of Aesops most beloved fables, an unlikely pair learn that no act of kindness is ever wasted. After a ferocious lion spares a cowering mouse that hed planned to eat, the mouse later comes to his rescue, freeing him from a poachers trap. With vivid depictions of the landscape of the African Serengeti and expressively-drawn characters, Pinkney makes this a truly special retelling, and his stunning pictures speak volumes.
