Publisher Description
Tom saw a lion strolling through the orchard with a string of sausages dangling from its mouth. But no one will believe him. No one, that is, except Clare, the cleverest girl in Tom's class. Why does Clare believe him? Because she knows something about Tom's story that no-one else does....
Together they come up with a daring plan to prove Tom is telling the truth - but somehow things don't turn out quite as they planned.

"My favourite part of the book was the ending. It was nice and funny because of what the grandmother said and what happened to Tom."
