The Lion's Deceit {Review}

The Lion's Deceit by Mpho Otukile is a story about a lion who is very lazy and doesn't want to go hunting for his food.  He comes up with a plan to trick the other animals into coming right to him, but will he get away with it?

This is an easy to read short story to help teach children about the consequences of being lazy. After reading it with my kids, it provided a way to discuss working hard and being truthful. My kids liked the story and asked to read it several more times.  It is filled with bright beautiful illustrations that my kids enjoyed looking at. 
About the author: Mpho Otukile comes from Botswana, in the Southern part of Africa where she grew up listening to stories told by the village elders at night while sitting around an open fire. As much as she was entertained, these stories also instilled some moral lessons about life.
The author now lives in Winnipeg, Canada and is writing these stories to pass them to her daughter and other children.
