Janice Curtis Greene King Lion Takes a Census

Annotation

King Lion is faced with a dilemma. His every growing Kingdom makes it difficult to handle all the issues, good and bad, that accompany progress. The wise owl advises the King to count all the animals in his domain. The animals set out to complete this tremendous task so improvements can be made to benefit the entire animal population. King Lion Takes a Census is a fun way to describe the Census to children and encourage parents to complete the Census forms. The book also explains in elementary terms how completing the Census helps to build and maintain our communities. The book is written in prose and poetry for fun-filled reading.
