Why read it?
1 author picked The Lion Inside as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
My 18-month-old and I read this together. She loved saying “roar” whenever she saw the lion. Of course, she made me smile, but I also loved that she was hearing the message. She isn’t old enough to understand it yet, but my older daughter got it. We all have the mouse and the lion inside and that’s okay! Courage isn’t loud and bold; often, it’s found in the small moments.
From Tasha's list on how to live courageously.
