I'm sitting in the time-out chair because my mother put me there. She said, "You try my patience, child! I do not like it when you're wild."

Wild?

Who me?

That is so absurd.

How could she even use that word?

If I were a lion.

I'd growl and roar

And knock the dishes on the floor...

AND if I were a bear...

If I Were a Lion is a book for every child who's ever been sent to the time-out chair -- unjustly...or otherwise!
