 Grade 4

The story of The Lion King is about a young lion, Simba, who wants to be like his father, King Mufasa, and one day rule the Pride Lands. Not everyone in the kingdom celebrates the new cub's arrival. Scar, Mufasa's brother – and former heir to the throne – has plans of his own. When Simba is convinced by Scar that he (Simba) is responsible for his father's death, Simba runs away to a far-away jungle. He makes friends with Timon and Pumbaa, who teach him to ignore his past. There, he grows into an adult lion, while Scar wreaks havoc on the Pride Lands. When Simba is discovered by his childhood friend Nala, she confronts him, warning him of Scar's tyranny and begging him to return home.
