For generations, the animals of the African plains have followed a single rule: only kill to survive. But when an unthinkable act of betrayal shatters the peace, the fragile balance between predators and prey will rest in the paws of three unlikely heroes.

"After an act of betrayal rocks the Bravelands, baboon Thorn must find a way to confront treachery in his own troop, while elephant Sky searches for answers and lion Fearless contends with the usurper who conquered his father's pride"--

A young lion saves the day with the help of his new eyeglasses.

Is a lion still a lion if he... wears a hat? And carries an umbrella? Is a lion still a lion if he asks for a dance? Is so polite... but then asks for lunch?!

"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?" --

With the false leader destroyed, the animals of Bravelands are searching for the true Great Parent, but a mysterious new menace is threatening their lives.

A modern update on the classic fable of the lion and the mouse shares the relationship between two unlikely friends.

When a lion cub gets in trouble for fighting with his younger sister, he storms off and the other jungle animals try to help him figure out how to handle his anger.

Simon the housecat points out that he may not roar like a lion or run fast like a cheetah, but he has many other things in common with the big cats.
