text: does anyone know of a place i can find a summary of "the mystery of the nervous lion"? (children book) the story is called " the mystery of the nervous lion " by nick west. sparknotes.com (it's from barnes&nobles) it gives a summary and analysis of the book. there's a short, essay size summary of the entire book too. otherwise, you can read about each chapter. cliffsnotes.com is good, too, and it's has shorter summaries. the analysis of the books are very good.
