The Jungle King

Maximillion the Lion is the majestic ruler of a fabulous jungle empire. He is kidnapped by a power hungry hyena. Max's meek, mild-mannered brother Irwin agrees to impersonate the missing monarch for the sake of the safety of the kingdom. At first the masquerade works. Irwin finds his inner strength and even finds time to fall in love with the beautiful lioness Leonette. But then, the hyena, a tyrannical tiger and his elephant army attack the defenseless kingdom. Suddenly, Irwin must prove that he can be a real king of the beasts. In this tale, children learn that kindness and honesty have their own rewards and that a simple lifestyle can be more fulfilling than running a kingdom. Irwin and Maximillion, brothers who had grown apart because of jealousy and their differences, come together when each appreciates the other's challenges.
