This book reminded me of when my parents brought back my dog. The excitement of a new pet as a kid is the best, but if I thought my dog was a lion I would probably react the same way that the brothers did. My dog is a little lion himself, even though he weighs thirty pounds he acts like he ways 300 pounds. ( )

A story based upon a South African with a contemporary setting about a dad who comes home one day with a lion that he insists is a dog. A fun, absurd story that young readers will enjoy. ( )
