What children are saying about “Lion’s Water.”

  • Two young girls smiling and holding copies of a book titled 'Lion's Water' at a restaurant or cafe, with other people in the background.

    "We really love Lion’s Water. It was a gift from our Auntie. Our favorite thing is that Akiiki found her courage and protected her little brother. She also looks just like us!"

    — Malea and Mikala W. (1st and 2nd Grade)

  • Young girl sitting at a table, smiling, holding an open picture book with text and colorful illustrations, in a classroom or community center with other people.

    — Catherine R. (4th grade)

  • A smiling boy wearing headphones and a plaid shirt, holding a children's book titled 'Lion's Water' against a beige wall with framed artwork.

    "I really liked the story. It tells a little bit about Ugandan. I also like the part when Akiiki drinks the water and she looks back at her reflection and turns into a lion! It was good!"
