THE BUTTERFLY LION





This fast-paced book is about a young boy, Bertie Andrews who is obsessed with his white lion.  He was living in Africa and had to move to England for school. They sold the lion to the circus and he promised he'll see him again.  I'd recommend this book for kids ages 10-14 and I would give it a 8/10 rating.

I think a character who changed in the text was Morpurgo, qho at the start left school and and met granny.  At the beginning, he qwas shy and awkward around granny but as she started telling the story aboiut Bertie Andrews and drinking coffee they ere beginning to become friends.  Morpurgo listened and cared about what granny had to say.          By the end of everything he was OK to go back to school.               I think he just needed a small and cool break.
