Det kan være svært at være modig. Men med min løve ved min side, er alt muligt. Sammen kan vi klare hele verden... ét skridt af gangen.

No matter how fast I go, or where I end up, my brave lion sticks with me--my lion's always there! When she and her lion are together, one little girl feels like she can do anything. Whether she's afraid of the dark, or too shy to speak and in need of finding her voice, her big, bold companion always looks out for her. But one day, the inseparable pair decide to climb the new, dizzyingly high rocket slide at the playground together, and the girl discovers that even lions sometimes get afraid. Can she summon the strength to be his lion when he needs her? Joyful, expressive artwork glowing with bright primary colors brings to life the story of a special bond--and a child's discovery of unexpected courage.
