    The Butterfly lion is one the best books Michael Morpurgo has written. The book is about a boy who goes to boarding school, but missed home so much that he decided to catch a train home. I’m afraid that is all I’m going to tell you, but If your interested in this book, (you should be) then buy a copy of it, or borrow it from a library.

    It is a heart rending story about a yong boy living in Africa that befriends a white lion. It is all about how they are sepperated but always find oneother and become the bestest friends you could ever be!

    this book is amazing i know it does start of slightly boring but keeep going with it that is what i did and the rest of story is fenominal, it moved me because it was soo well writen with enough description but not loads so you can be there while it is all happening, you can be billy if you let your mind go imagine .with all of the michael morpurgo books i have read they are all soo well writen that you can be the main charcter there you can do everything they can so weel done and thank you again mr.morpurgo another amazingly written book as per usual!!!! i would reccomend this book to any one and rate it a well deserved 10/10!!!!

    I loved this book. The way Michael Morpurgo weaves realistic situations into a ficton book is amazing. I would defenitely reccomend this book. But only to the ages above 9 as it has some very extended language used, though not innopropriate words.

    THE BUTTERFLY LION IS A VERY TOUCHING BOOK AND IS SET IN AFRICA. THE OPENING IS BASIC, BUT THE BOOK ITSELF IS TREMENDOUS. THE CHARACTERS ALL SEEM TO BE ALIVE. I LOVED THIS STORY AND WOULD READ IT AGAIN ANY DAY! Well Done Mr Morpurgo
