Publisher Description:
I'm sitting in the time-out chair because my mother put me there. She said, You try my patience, child I do not like it when you're wild.
Wild?
Who me?
That is so absurd.
How could she even use that word?
If I were a lion.
I'd growl and roar
And knock the dishes on the floor...
AND if I were a bear...
If I Were a Lion is a book for every child who's ever been sent to the time-out chair -- unjustly...or otherwise
