...One of Osa’s best children’s books which delightfully follows the progress of "Tarnish" from blind, fuzzy kitten hood to adulthood and finally his becoming a member of the pride.
...It clearly depicts what it would be like to be a lion on the African plain....The book contains very realistic illustrations of lion cubs, families, and life in the lion family by renowned expedition artist Arthur A. August Jansson.
..."..Slowly the stars came out....Then the pale moon. ...And night settled softly over the plains and the lion kingdom of Africa.."
