This story is called The Lion and the Mouse, based on a traditional fable by Aesop, and adapted and read by Ryan Aoto. This is a LibraryCall recording. On the grasslands of Africa there lived a lion. He was bigger and faster than the other lions. In every measurable, physical way, he was the best lion. Unfortunately, in every social way, he was the absolute worst lion. “You call that running?” he would say to the others. “I am much faster than you. I’m surprised you can catch any food at all.” Lions live in large families called prides. Normally, the lionesses do all the hunting.
