The Lions' Choice

By Ray Harris

The Creator solves the problem of too many animals by making the Lion, but the Lions also run into trouble as the seasons change - join five intrepid Lions on a journey to a cave high in the Dragon's mountain, in search of the oldest and wisest Lion of all!

The Lions' Choice was designed to introduce youngsters to the concept of problem solving and the voting system. Since those who are young today, will become the voting adults of tomorrow, it is essential that they have a clear and basic understanding of how it all works. The Lions' Choice takes the complexity out of the voting system and presents it in a way that will teach youngsters not only how it works, but introduce them to a whole range of new words that they will undoubtedly use often in adult life.

Ray Harris

Ray Harris produces a high quality unusual mixture of genres in his writing. Subjects range from none fiction to science fiction in a delightful collage, all pointed in one way or another at examining the mystical abilities of mankind, and always using real science as a base, in order to present a clearer understanding of these strange phenomenon that humanity has always viewed as either hocus pocus, or with deep superstition.  Ray reveals through his diverse works the natural laws of our world and universe at work, very much analogous to the writings of Lyall Watson. Having been born with Clairvoyant abilities, Ray had to contend with the scorn of people that couldn't believe that he had access to other dimensions in one way or another. This reason, amongst others, prompted him to seek proof that would be acceptable by people, and because that proof came mainly from science, he studied many mysterious phenomenon from that perspective. This in turn caused him to write a wide variety of works that examined these phenomenon from unique and exciting perspectives. Ray believes that one has to have both a specialized and holistic view of these mysterious abilities in order to gain a defined insight, and so it is that every time he produces a book, you can be relatively sure that its subject matter will differ from what he wrote previously. This provides the reader with a wonderful array of new interesting subjects and information, revealing the astonishing truth about mankind and his potential abilities. Reading Rays books is like diving into strange waters with the conflicting emotions of excitement and apprehension. One thing is sure - the reader will never again view this earthly life in the way they did before! Apart from this introduction to Clairvoyance – that everyone has the ability, Ray has produced works on Dreams and Dream Interpretation in a way never done before, a unique work on his personal experience with Death, a completely unique book that gives an insight to his life and background, a book on motivational quotes that summarises many strange abilities affecting mankind, and showing how they work, a volume of amazing Science Fiction stories that is the first in a series of ten. There are many more to come, so once the reader has been through the exciting array of eBooks available from Ray, they can look forward to new and wondrous emerging subjects!

Chapter One

A long time ago in Africa, there were only animals living on the land, and no people.

At first, there were only a few of each kind, but as time went by, their families grew bigger and bigger, until there were so many that they began to eat more and more of the trees and grass. In some places, they ate everything, and that is how the deserts began.

As we know, there is very little to eat in a desert, so the animals moved to where there was plenty of food. This place was called the Karoo. But soon it seemed that they would eat everything there as well!

The Creator saw what was happening and said to Himself, Let me do something before the Karoo also becomes a desert. And so he made the Lion, and put him on the land to stop the number of animals from growing too big.

So He made the lion...

Remember, he told the lions, only kill those animals that are sick, or too old, or too slow.

This plan of the Creator worked very well, and for a long time all the animals were happy.

Then the buck, although there was plenty to eat, found that their favourite food in the Karoo was becoming scarce.

Also, in other places at certain times of the year, the grass would die. So they wandered over the mountains, across the grasslands, through the bush, then along the forest in winter. By doing this, they were always sure of the freshest leaves and grass to eat. But of course, this meant that there would be times when they would be away from the different kingdoms of the lions.

When the buck were gone, the lions had to eat things they did not like, such as monkeys, because they were hard to catch, porcupines, because their spines pricked them, and tortoises, which hurt their teeth.

Monkeys tease the lions.

So when they were hungry, they found it easier to go over to the other lions’ kingdoms and hunt there.

This meant that there would be less food for those lions, and soon they began to fight over the buck, and some were even killed in those terrible battles.
