Gustaf Tenggren Book order

One of the bestselling Little Golden Books of all time. Once there was a tawny scrawny lion who chased monkeys on Monday—kangaroos on Tuesday—zebras on Wednesday—bears on Thursday—camels on Friday—and on Saturday, elephants! So begins the classic story of a family of ten fat rabbits that teaches the hungry lion to eat carrot stew—so that he doesn’t eat them.

In this famous African folktale, a lion has a thorn in its paw. Who will take it out? Only the little mouse is brave enough! Children will learn a lesson about compassion as they look at breathtaking paintings of African animals by renowned illustrator Gustaf Tenggren. A Little Golden Book Classic!

The Shy Little Kitten, with illustrations by the renowned Gustaf Tenggren, was originally published in 1946. This beloved best-selling Little Golden Book tells the tale of a shy little kitten who meets a mole, a frog, a puppy, and a squirrel in one adventure-filled day.
