An Aesop fable about the value of all- great and small- retold and illustrated by the legendary European artist Bernadette Watts. When a lion cub spares the life of a mouse, the smallest animal of all promises his friendship to the king of the jungle. The lion doubts that a mouse could ever help him… until he finds himself trapped with no way of escape. Bernadette Watts brings this well-loved fable about the value of friendship in all shapes and sizes to life in luxurious illustrations.
