Below is what the patron remembers: * There's a little boy and a lion. * The only line she remembers is "I'm the king of the castle and you're the dirty rascal." * It was a small book with just a few lines on each page and very little color. She compared the illustrations to Maurice Sendak. * Book was published at least 25-30 years ago. Does this ring a bell for anyone? Thank you!
