Publisher's summary

Everything the light touches is their kingdom.

When a lion cub named Simba is born, his father, King Mufasa, introduces him to the beautiful Pride Lands he will one day rule.

But when Mufasa is killed unexpectedly, young Simba blames himself. Unable to face his family, he runs away, leaving the Pride Lands under the rule of his evil uncle, Scar. Years later, the young prince must make a choice. Will he reclaim his homeland or turn his back on the kingdom in its darkest hour?

Loved it!!!!

I would have to say, I enjoyed the book more than I enjoyed the movie!!!
They gave the characters more background information, I can here the emotion in the characters thoughts and it gave more story and dialogue inscription. It was such a good book!!! Can’t wait to read the novelization of Aladdin next!!!!

Excellent

I never saw the movie, so I decided to listen to this to see what the hoopla was all about. I get it! I loved the story and the characters.

I love Nala and Simba 2

my favorite character is Nala I have 5 t shirts with her this book is the best I will buy the paper back version for my birthday party. They should have made a The Lion King 2 because I love Kiara almost as much as Nala
