Tawny Scrawny Lion written by Kathryn Jackson and illustrated by Gustaf Tenggren was a staple of the Little Golden Book catalog. It was first published in January 1952. It is listed as number 117 on the all-time bestselling children's books.^[1]

The lion is taught life lessons as the story develops teaching the days of the week.

The other animals, tired of being chased by the lion, recruit a fat little rabbit to confront the lion. The rabbit proposes the lion come to his home to join his sisters and brothers for dinner. Thinking he will be eating rabbit instead of the offered carrot stew, the lion hops off with the rabbit. Along the way the rabbit delays his return home. He fills a basket along the way with additional tasty treats. When they arrive at the rabbit house the spoils from the trip are added to the bubbling carrot stew. Dinner is served to the emaciated lion. He eats until he is satiated and content and can no longer chase the rabbits.

The next day the contented lion no longer has the desire to chase the monkeys on Monday, the kangaroos on Tuesday, the zebras on Wednesday, the bears on Thursday, the camels on Friday nor the elephants on Saturday. He did however collect the same ingredients he had seen the rabbit collect to add to the rabbit family- his newfound friends- stew. ^[2] Learning the lesson of generosity and friendship.
