Gelli Belle and The Lazy Lion (Book 2 in The Gelli Belle Series) is written in the style of a poem. It has a lyrical, and rhythmic tone with illustrations that blend real-world photography and digital sketching in a colorful, mixed medium design.
It is a fun and playful children's picture book that revolves around a little girl and a sentient stuffed toy with little interest in moving from the comfort of his toy box bed. Gelli wakes up to a beautiful new day with all of the hope and wonder that most young children have. She is ready to play and select a companion to join in on the fun. Asleep in a chest is a lion who is determined not to play with Gelli, no matter how enticing her promises of what the day might bring for them both.
Can Gelli Belle convince Larry that there is more to life than sleeping? Can she convince him to enjoy life and the fun things in it?
Gelli Belle and The Lazy Lion remind us all that life is beautiful AND worth enjoying!

"Gelli Belle and the Lazy Lion" is an interesting Children's Book written by Vernae Bezear and illustrated by Jozcel Fernandez and Christina Rudenko.
Story features a little girl Gelli and her lazy lion, Larry who just want to have a rest the whole day but Gelli wants him to go to the park to enjoy the day. Read this beautiful story to know how Gelli and Larry would spend their day outside. Story gives a strong message to the readers that being lazy is just a waste of time. There's so much we can do in the world outside by just opening our mind.
The story is fast paced and exciting. Beautiful artwork, fun and easy to read book. A wonderful story that I will surely share with my friends. This book would be a lovely addition to any children’s bookshelf. Cover photo of the book is attractive. I am definitely interested in reading more books by the author.
