Synopsis

So she practices on her dog Ralph, who doesn’t care for his paper mane and would much rather be asleep on the sofa.Luckily, Mila’s parents are lion tamers too, they’re part of a circus and they have lions. Mila isn’t allowed to tame the real lions, but she’s going to try anyway. When she opens the gate to the lions’ cage to slip in they slip out. Quite casually. They have sharp teeth and pointy claws. This could be a problem.Will Mila be able to catch the missing lions before anyone finds out?
