Wasteful lion King Leonard, who routinely throws the possessions he's done with out the window, is bereft when his beloved teddy bear becomes unstuffed. After he discovers that it can't be replaced, Leonard becomes an avid do-it-yourself-er. While the book leads with its hard-sell environmental message, the lesson goes down easy thanks to woodblock-like art in a soft color scheme.
