5.0 out of 5 stars Love this book!
I have not seen the movie, I heard it was scary for little kids. My 2 1/2 old loves this book, she asks for it again and again. I bought the CD and every time we get in the car she wants Lion King music. She knows all the characters, and even can tell me who is singing right from the book. Very well done.

3.0 out of 5 stars Well written descriptions -- NO CREDIT for writer(s)

It gets the point across of what happens without being too scary (although I did have to explain to her why Mufasa can't come back anymore).

3.0 out of 5 stars Well written descriptions -- NO CREDIT for writer(s), March 17, 2011
Why couldn't Disney at least name the writer, or writers, who wrote the descriptions of the movie scenes for the book? The prose is good. SOMEONE deserves credit. Disney is stingy. And mean. And the movie glorifies monarchy. Mufasa is a benevolent dictator. (Always benevolent? We don't know.) Simba will be his unelected successor-king. No room for democracy in Disney's Pride Land? Oops, I've misplaced my sense of humor! Darn that Disney.

I purchased this book and the movie DVD together and this book's illustrations are right out of the movie. My 1.5yr old son loves to look at the pictures in the book.

3.0 out of 5 stars Bad plot, but good drawings concerning the movie., February 19, 1997
By A Customer
Although this book has really bad plot, it is a very educative book, expecially for the young. It teaches about respect, and correcting ones wrongs. I recommend it for anyone who enjoys good character

3.0 out of 5 stars The Lion King, November 9, 2004
A Kid's Review
This review is from: The Lion King: A Read-Aloud Storybook (Hardcover)
A Joyous day dawned in the Pride Lands. A lion prince had been born! The animals gathered at Pride Rock to celebrate the Circle of Life.They bowed low as the wise babon Rafiki held Simba high. King Mufasa and Sarab watched their cub prodly.
But one animal was missing from the craud. Scar,Mufasa's brother, did not want to see his new nephew. "It must have slipped my mind,"scar told Mufasa. scar had hoped to become King when Mufasa's rule ended. Now he knew that Simba would become the next Lion King.
To try toget him out of the way. Scar set a trap for young Simba and his friend Nala. He tricked them into exploring on elephant graveyard. to make sure that Simba didn't come back, scar sent three hungry hyens to meet him.
Mufasa resued the young cubs. He did not know about scar's tric. He only knew that he was disappointed in his son for talking foolish chances scar was upset for a different resson: simba was still alive scar led Simba to a deep canyon and starter a stampede to crush him.
