A young girl asks her father to tell her a story about a lion. Soon the child corrects her dad and adds details of her own. Eventually the story turns into an interactive one in which the readers/listeners are invited to fill in their own details. Children will be delighted in this Mad-Libs like game which also builds on the art of storytelling. Easily used for one-to-one reading but would also serve well as a share for Story Time. While I thought the format of the book is imaginative, the illustrations were average, albeit humorous.
