The Cheetah

In the golden grasslands of Africa, a young cheetah named Zuri is trying very hard to become something she’s not. A lion.

Her best friend Hugo the lion is strong. Really strong. He can roar, wrestle, and shove logs with his giant paws. Zuri tries everything to be strong like him … but nothing seems to work.

Until one surprising moment reveals something important: Zuri doesn’t need to be strong like a lion, because cheetahs have superpowers of their own.

Join Carie, Lincoln, and Eliza as they explore the speedy, spotted, super-powered world of the fastest land animal on Earth: the cheetah.
