About this book
As the sun rises, a young lion cub follows his mother through the African Savannah. Surrounded by all manner of animals and birds, he plays, chases and explores as life goes on around him. When the sun sets, he curls up under the moon to sleep after his busy day, while the lionesses hunt for food.
The endpapers have an extensive illustrated list of creatures found in the savannah day and night, and children will enjoy identifying them within the story. With appealing illustrations in warm colours, and plenty of factual information, this is a lovely discussion book for children who have an interest in animals and the natural environment.
