I Gave This Book 5 Roars! 🦁🦁🦁🦁🦁

Why 5 Roars? The story is filled with playful antics, laughter, and delightful silliness. This is a book that children want to read over and over again. A classic that never goes out of style.

Critical Analysis: A rhythmic, rhyming text full of fun. The repetitive nature of the book allows children to anticipate and participate in the story, making it an interactive and engaging reading experience...over and over again!

"Exploding with whimsy, humor, and zest . . . Be prepared to read this one a

thousand times!"
