A lion called Christian  Cover Image Book Book

A lion called Christian / Anthony Bourke and John Rendall ; foreword by George Adamson.

Bourke, Anthony. (Author). Rendall, John. (Added Author).

Summary:

A wondrous, serendipitous tale that tracks Christian's migration from London streets to Kenyan wilderness and the new friends, both lion and human (notably lion expert George Adamson of Born Free fame) that he finds there. Most astonishing, however, is that in 1971, after a year's absence, his old friends Bourke and Rendall returned to Africa and successfully reunited with Christian.
