There's a Lion on the Dance Floor Kristin Harkison Paulus

A lion's love for music and dancing leads him from a familiar forest to the human world. He follows the music and finds the dance floor, but feels left out in a crowd of people with awestruck, frightened faces. One brave and curious boy sets aside his fear and approaches the lion. This story, told in a humorous and light fashion, touches on issues related to friendship, overcoming differences, and the ability to face fears. The parallel to real life situations faced by children makes this a relevant, yet heart-warming piece of work. The colorful illustrations create a joyous and comforting backdrop to the story, and breathe new life into age-old messages.
