Book Reviews of Christian the Lion
Book Review: How Doesn't Love a Lion?
Summary: 5 Stars
Like most people, Christian was unknown to me before YouTube. But once I saw the reunion between Christian and John & Ace, it was all over. I really couldn't wait to read the story of this incredible friendship, and was not dissapointed in John and Ace's book. It was funny, warm, touching and most of all...proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that love really does know no boundaries. If you want to feel good, read this book. What a nice change from the usual murder mysteries, political junky books, etc. You won't be sorry if you buy this book.Book Review: Absolutely delightful book
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this for one of my granddaughters who loves to read and loves animal of all sorts. Saw a segment on "The View" with these two men and films with them and Christian. It was such a heartwarming story; Another "Born Free" (what a movie!!) Anyway, I decided to get this a a birthday gift. I have read it, love it and I'm sure my granddaughter will also. I hope it is a book she will treasure and pass down to her children if she has any.Book Review: Christian the Lion

I received this book as a gift before I knew there was a youtube video. The book is simply written but is a very poignant story. Once I picked it up, I couldn't put it down! I would recommend this book to all animal lovers because its story defies all that we are supposed to believe about animals in their "wild" habitat. My husband teaches 4th grade and is planning on reading it to his class and then having them watch the youtube video.Book Review: A vivid survey of human interactions with wildlife and nature

Two friends searching for holiday gifts in London come across an amazing sight: a lion cub for sale in Harrods, the famous department store. They take him home; a year later the adopters realize their pet needs more care than they can give him. This story of how Christian was returned to the African wild offers a vivid survey of human interactions with wildlife and nature.Book Review: Heartwarming real life story
Summary: 5 Stars
I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I recommend it for everyone who wants to read a uplifting real life tale. Excellent. For animal lovers -- watch the You Tube video "Christian the Lion" and then get all the books about his life. Also, read Born Free as well.
