The Stone Lion
By Margaret Wild
Illustrated by Ritva Voutila
For ages 5–9
Sometimes statues are granted a chance to become warm, breathing creatures.
The stone lion has only one dream – to run, pounce and leap in the park across from where he sits.
But one snowy night, when a baby is abandoned at his paws, he is compelled to think differently.

Why picture books?
Picture books cover a diverse range of topics, expose children to words and language they might not hear normally in conversation, and teach children how reading works (left to right, top to bottom). While picture books might be too hard for early readers to read by themselves at first, the books are not too hard to understand. Reading picture books with your child will inspire them to learn to read on their own, and experience the pleasure of reading.
