The King of Beasts and the Queen of Brains: A Swahili Folktale

In this Swahili folktale from East Africa, a cunning hare cooks up a sweet plan to escape the clutches of a haughty, hungry lion. When the vengeful feline visits Hare’s house, ready to pounce, she has to think on her (very quick) feet! 🦁Time for you to ROAR! At the top of today’s episode you met members of our League of Lions: our pride of values and virtues that make the world a better place, including Courage, Curiosity, Generosity, Gratitude, Integrity, Kindness, Patience, Persistence, and Wisdom. **Which Lion did YOU bring to life this week?** Whether you practiced Persistence by not giving up, used Kindness with a friendly word, or showed Generosity by sharing, we want to feature YOU on Lions and Legends!
