What is Lion on the loose about?
When huge pawprints appear in the garden and the woods, everyone starts to wonder whether a lion is roaming nearby. Could a wild animal really be on the loose? As the clues build, the search becomes more urgent and the mystery more confusing. With danger, surprising discoveries and a clever twist, this short, fast-paced story follows a family trying to work out what is really happening. But appearances can be deceptive, and the truth is not quite what anyone expects.
