The Lion Who Stole My Arm

(2) 4-6 Illustrated by Annabel Wright. After losing his right arm in a lion attack, young Pedru thinks of revenge. And he does kill a lion, but it's not the same one; it's tagged with a collar from the Madune Carnivore Research Station. Thus begins Pedru's relationship with lion researchers sympathetic to the concerns of the villagers. Davies's story, both subtle and thoughtful, is also an exciting adventure tale.
