From the team that created the family favorite The Wolf Who Cried Boy comes this light hearted retelling of the Bible story about Daniel in the lions' den.

When poor Daniel is thrown into the lions' den by his enemies, he prays to God for help. Suddenly, an angel appears and convinces the lions that it's not yet dinnertime--instead, it's scratching time, and he gives the lions a good scratch behind the ears. Then it's on to belly-rubbing time and sleeping time, so that when the king checks on Daniel in the morning, he's safe and sound. But once Daniel is rescued, who will be next?

Featuring a fun read-aloud text and Tim Raglin's hilarious cross-hatch illustrations, Dinner in the Lions' Den is a clever introduction to a classic story of faith and redemption. Bon appétit!
