Christian the Lion 1

So far I really like this book. John and Ace seem like they were extremely excited to get Christian and like they had a ton of fun with him. They talk about keeping him in the furniture shop where they worked because they lived above it and there was a giant room in the basement where Christian could hangout and they didn’t have to worry about him ruining things because all of that furniture needed to be repaired. People would come in just to see Christian and some people didn’t believe they really had a pet lion. Whenever people entered the store they always asked “How do you feel about lions?” and still some people refused to believe there was a lion in the store until they saw him. Ace and Christian weren’t the only ones to have exotic pets in London. There was another lady that bought a Puma or something like that named Margot. Margot was also a very good pet and lived with the lady her whole life. The casino owner also kept tigers and gorillas. It’s crazy to think about wild animals living in the middle of London. I feel bad for them because they couldn’t have had the best life possible living in the middle of a busy city when they should be out in the middle of no where Africa. Christian is really lucky compared to the other animals because John and Ace took such great care of him.
