'Lennie the veggie
was a curious soul…who could often be seen eating food
from a bowl!’
In this beautifully
illustrated and witty story filled with playful rhyme and amusing jungle
characters, we meet a loveable lion named Lennie…who discovers the power of
plants!
While the
other lions can’t understand Lennie’s love of vegetables and try to persuade
him to eat meat, Lennie is having none of it. He is a proud vegetarian and would
rather befriend the other animals than eat them!
Author and
illustrator Sue Banner’s lively rhyming text and bold, expressive artwork bring
Lennie’s jungle to life with colour, laughter, and warmth - with just a sprinkle
of toilet humour! But beneath the fun and cheeky moments lies a meaningful message
about peer pressure, individuality, and having the courage to stand up for your
beliefs.
Perfect for
reading aloud at home or in the classroom, Lennie The Veggie will delight young
children and adults alike, sparking conversations not only about diet and where
our food comes from, but about kindness, respect, and having the confidence to
be true to oneself.
A playful note at the end of the story confirms that real lions do eat meat, of course,
but in the jungle, all the food is free range!
