Description
The Lion and the Bird is a sensitive, beautiful, and utterly charming fable about generosity, kindness and true friendship.
One autumn day, a lion finds a wounded bird in his garden. With the departure of the bird's flock, the lion decides that it's up to him to care for the bird. He does and the two become fast friends. Nevertheless, the bird departs with his flock the following autumn. What will become of Lion and what will become of their friendship?
