Joanna K. Harris has done it again. This Globe writer continues to be amazed by my friend Joanna and her perseverance through her own health challenge, as she combines those challenges with her creativity to write delightful, encouraging children’s books.
“Cheaper Than A Lion” is a fun story about a little boy with a big birthday wish. Even when others tell him all the reasons why his wish is impossible, he doesn’t give up; and he eventually discovers there are gifts even better than what he wished for.
Children will enjoy looking for the hidden lion in many of the illustrations while engaging with the easy-to-read text, described by one reviewer as “appropriate vocabulary, appropriate manner of speaking, and appropriate wishes—leading to an appropriate principle learned in a fun way” (Elinor Young, Great Commission Kids). Children’s author Andrea Plotner says, “In this short and engaging story about a boy’s birthday wishes, readers are introduced to the love of God, love of families, and fun Bible themes that leave you wanting more.” In the book’s final page, kids learn about Jesus, the Lion of Judah and the only lion we all need.
