Book excerpt: Mila is a lion tamer. She has everything she needs to be one. Except lions. So she practices on her dog Ralph, who doesn't care for his paper mane and would much rather be asleep on the sofa. Luckily, Mila's parents are lion tamers too, they're part of a circus and they have lions. Mila isn't allowed to tame the real lions, but she's going to try anyway. When she opens the gate to the lions' cage to slip in they slip out. Quite casually. They have sharp teeth and pointy claws. This could be a problem. Will Mila be able to catch the missing lions before anyone finds out? The stunning debut picture book from Celeste Hulme, featuring a feisty, resourceful heroine with one very big problem to solve! The beautiful retro illustrations will appeal to both children and parents. Filled with gorgeous vintage circus details, this is a must-have addition to any library. Celeste Hulme grew up in Africa, so knows exactly how big a lion's claws are. She spent most of her childhood wandering the deserts of Namibia and exploring the rainforests of Swaziland. Celeste studied a BA Hons in Visual Communication and Design at Stellenbosch University. Celeste dreams of running off to join the circus as a lion tamer or a human cannonball.
