Lawrence International:Winner of Publisher of the Year award.
Hilary Lawrence has taken one of life’s real conundrums and turned it into a charming rhymed lesson. Beautifully illustrated by Katherine Summerville, the story sets out to show how easy it is to play on kindness and friendliness in order to establish a false friendship, which could easily end in tragedy. The story portrays Larry the Leopard who, with persuasive words, overrules all warnings about the danger he represents. He invites all the animals to a party, where he suddenly reverts to type. The animals are saved by Elephant, the only animal not to be taken in by Larry, the Leopard who didn’t change his spots after all.
