How does a very small girl hide a very large lion? It's not easy, but Iris has to do her best, because mums and dads can be funny about having a lion in the house.

Luckily, there are lots of good places to hide a lion - behind the shower curtain, in your bed, and even up a tree.

But Iris can't hide her lion forever, and when her mum discovers him, he has to run away and hide all on his own. When the lion sees three robbers stealing from the town hall, it's his chance to show everyone that he is, after all, a kind (and very brave) lion - just like Iris always said


鎮上的人都很怕獅子，他們拿起掃把、擀麵棍…把獅子趕得遠遠的。獅子跑啊跑，跑到小女孩愛麗絲的花園裡。

愛麗絲一點也不怕獅子，她邀請獅子進到屋子裡，她幫獅子拿掉鬃毛上的葉子，幫獅子的傷口貼上繃帶，他們要很小心以免讓爸媽發現。不過，要把一隻獅子藏起來並不容易，牠真的太大了，又太毛茸茸…幸好家裡有好多地方可以躲藏。

有一天，媽媽發現了獅子，她嚇得大叫，獅子又跑走了。 獅子這回找到一個藏起來的好地方，牠躲在市鎮廳的廣場前，和兩座獅子雕像在一起。當獅子看到把市政廳洗劫一空的三個強盜，獅子大吼一聲，從雕像的基座上跳下來，英勇的制伏了強盜。牠向大家證明牠是一隻善良的好獅子。 而愛麗絲早就知道了！
