Reviews:
“Waber's characteristic sly humor and droll, watercolor-and-ink cartoon art bring to life the hilarious mishaps that befall a lion named Shirley Williamson.”
—Selene S. Vasquez, New York Public Library
5 Stars “The book has sprightly, simple drawings that perfectly suit the slightly offbeat story, and there's plenty of dry wit to keep parents amused, too.”
