What an interesting concept - to merge the story of the animal kingdom with the story of the human world. I am interested to see the author's take on the South African setting. It also sounds like there are some important lessons in this book. Thanks for the honest review.

Although I'm not a fan of erotic scenes, I plan to still give this a try. Your review has me very interested!!

Today's BOTD skillfully brings together two worlds, animals and humans, into one story, focusing on a little girl who changed their lives. Themes about friendship, family, motherhood, and survival deepen the plot, making this a must-read for me. I've downloaded my copy! Thank you so much for the amazing review. :-)

In the beginning, I thought this was a children's book. It is a very persuasive book from what your review says and I can't wait to check it out. The serious matters like marriage and abuse it talks about just makes it a compelling read.

This is unique in a way that the animal world and the human world are joined together. This seems emotional too. Thanks for your review.

The title is fascinating and it leaves us with questions like; what happens when a lion roars? what makes a lion roar?
