The Lion and the Mouse

“A captured lion calls out, pleading for rescue, but none will heed his mournful call. One brave little mouse fulfills a promise and approaches with caution to aid the noble beast. Sometimes friends are found in the unlikeliest of places.”

We were asked to Illustrate a scene from and Aesop’s fable, I chose the Lion and the Mouse.
