That sounds like Pierre by Sendak.

Hello,
I am looking for an old picture book for a patron who read it to her daughter about 25-30 years ago. 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!
