The Incredible Adventures of Casper the Cat Who Got Lost in Africa: Book 5: The Lions

Book 5 in The Incredible Adventures of Casper the Cat Who Got Lost in Africa takes readers deeper into the wild as our brave little city cat crosses paths with Africa’s fiercest—and most misunderstood—creatures: the lions.

After leaving the noisy baboons behind, Casper wakes up beneath a tree full of chattering guinea fowl, only to stumble straight into the path of two enormous lions. But Hasani and Harry aren’t quite what she expected. Between their royal-sized egos, jump-scares, and thunderous laughs, Casper soon discovers that being king of the jungle comes with its own set of problems—especially when poachers return to the savannah.

Joined by an army of surprising new allies—spiders, scorpions, and even antlions—Casper helps the pride turn the hunters into the hunted, proving once again that courage doesn’t always come with claws and fangs.

Perfect for readers ages 5–10, The Lions is a beautifully illustrated chapter book packed with:
• Exciting animal adventures and laugh-out-loud surprises
• Big-hearted themes of courage, teamwork, and protecting others
• Real wildlife facts woven seamlessly into the story

Written by award-winning filmmaker Jennifer Ussi and illustrated by Lekshmi Bose, this thrilling 7,000-word tale roars with adventure, humor, and heart—reminding readers that even the smallest voice can make a mighty difference.
