In award-winning artist Jerry Pinkney's wordless adaptation of one of Aesop's most beloved fables, an unlikely pair learn that no act of kindness is ever wasted. After a ferocious lion spares a cowering mouse that he'd planned to eat, the mouse later comes to his rescue, freeing him from a poacher's trap.

Criticism Epithetical Books The Lion and the Mouse

I have never read this book before, but after reading this in the library, it became another one of my favorite children's books. It is an actual picture book without any words, which made me enjoy it even more because it made me really concentrate on the photos instead of the text. It also made me really think about what the storyline behind this was, which has never happened before. After finishing the book, I realized that the storyline behind this book was about a mouse who takes refuge on a

Although I am generally not all that much a fan of wordless picture books as a genre (as I simply do enjoy written text considerably more than illustrated images and also often tend to find the former easier to follow and understand), I have indeed found Jerry Pinkney's Caldecott Medal winning wordless adaptation of Aesop's fable The Lion and the Mouse both utterly charming and realistically, imaginatively descriptive, and thus really, truly showing the plot, the story of how a diminutive mouse

Caldecott Medal (2010)A splendid picture book relating Aesop's fable of The Lion and The Mouse. Deserving of the Caldecott for the highly detailed and rich watercolor illustrations. There is much to discover on each page, as the artwork is beautifully designed and rendered. 4/5 stars because the story itself, while classic, is not original.

Wow! this is a beautiful book cover to cover. This wordless retelling of an Aesops Fable is amazing and stunning. The mouse running from an owl runs onto the back of a Lion who catches the mouse and then lets him go. Later the lion is caught in a persons net and the mouse frees the lion from the trap.I think this is a wonderful story about helping each other. It could be a useful tool of understanding how to act right now on a political level. Jerry Pinkney has done more stories from Aesops

Have you ever thought that as long as you do good, good will be done back to you? Well that is what happens in this story. The Lion and the Mouse is one of Aesops fables. In this version, there are no words, only pictures, that guide the imagination. The main characters are the lion and the mouse. As in the original fable, the mouse accidentally wakes up a lion and is caught in his grasp. The lion graciously releases the mouse from his grasp, only to be saved from a poachers trap by the very

Goodness gracious, this is a book that can't just sit on a shelf in a bookstore. Try walking past it...you can't, for the magnificent water colours simply jump right at you. This book is a silent movie on paper. The tale "do unto others" is told by art only. Your children will want to turn the pages themselves so they can see the great maned lion and the pesky little mouse work things out.And once your child is done, take the book and stand it up on your bookshelf with cover front-and-center,
