Uncle Shelby's story of Lafcadio, the lion who shot back

by Shel Silverstein

Cover of Uncle Shelby's story of Lafcadio, the lion who shot back
Ages 5-10

This fuller-titled Lafcadio edition delivers the same unusual Silverstein fable about identity, transformation, and absurdity, all wrapped in his scratchy black-and-white visual style. A good choice for readers who like children’s books with a genuinely peculiar personality.
