From

the New York Times bestselling author/illustrator of Max the Brave comes an inspiring and adorable picture book about a pair of unlikely friends

who face down a pack of bullies.

In this timely and charming story about the importance of being true to

yourself, mindfulness, and standing by your friends, we meet Leonard, a lion,

and his best friend Marianne, a . . . duck.

Leonard and Marianne have a happy

life together—talking, playing, writing poems, and making wishes, But one day, a pack of bullies questions whether it's right for a lion and a duck to

be pals. Leonard soon learns there are many ways to be a lion, and many ways

to be a friend, and that sometimes finding just the right words can change

the world . . .

This sweet, funny, thoughtful, and much-needed story will open up readers'

eyes to the importance of being who they are and not backing down to hurtful

criticism. It's an empowering tale about connecting with others and choosing

kindness over bullying, and shows children how angry and provocative words

can be overcome by empathy and inner courage.
