Bookroo's summary

In a forest, Bear, Elephant, and Lion stumble upon a crown labeled 'For the Mightiest.' Each believes they deserve it, sparking a contest to scare an old woman. But when a giant arrives to claim the crown, the friends must reconsider what true might means. Is the giant the mightiest, or is there an unexpected contender? Discover a tale where strength is redefined, and the true mightiest emerges in a surprising twist.

From the publisher

Is the Bear, the Elephant, or the Lion the mightiest animal in the forest? When the three friends come upon a golden crown that says, “For the Mightiest,” they each think that they deserve the title. Just when it looks like they’ll argue forever, an old woman comes along, which gives them an idea. They’ll have a contest to see who can scare her the most! But their game goes awry when a giant appears to take the crown. The giant is certainly the biggest, but does that make him the mightiest? Or is there someone else even mightier than the giant? Keiko Kasza charms us again with a subtle reminder that no one is mightier than Mom.
