I like the way this book shows something so small is able to help someone bigger. This shows kids a great message.

Fortunately the lion was feeling generous so he let the mouse escape from him

I love Aesop fables because they teach important themes in ways that children have to determine it on their own.

Mouse and Lion tells a story about kindness and how showing someone grace and kindness can help you in the future. Lion let mouse free, and later Mouse came and helped to set Lion free to get away from the poachers.

This would be a good book to use to see how well children can pick up the theme of a story without any words.

In this adaptation of the story of the Lion and the Mouse, Jerry Pinkney decides to use pictures to a tell the tale. I found this to be an interesting approach to telling the tale, but Pinkney does an excellent job portraying the story this way. The illustrations are well done, hence why it won the Caldecott Award.

This is so cute. There are few words, so easy for kiddos to follow along and understand themselves, and also shows themes of friendship in unexpected ways. Would be good for the first week or month of school to help build classroom community.

The Lion captures the Mouse and wants to eat it! He then lets her go, based on how cute she is. The Lion continues on his adventures to find something to eat, meanwhile, there are hunters putting traps everywhere. The Lion get captured and is hanging from a rope net in the trees. Before the hunters come back, the Mouse chews the Lion free from the net and they are friends.

Traditional. This wordless adaption of one of Aesops fables tells the story of an unlikely pairing a mouse and a lion. The tale teaches us about kindness and how one act of kindness can go a long way and no act of kindness is ever a wasted act.
