AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'COMPASSION IS A FORCE MIGHTIER THAN STONE. Sometimes statues are granted a chance to become warm, breathing creatures. The stone lion has only one dream - to run, pounce and leap in the park across from where he sits. But one snowy night, when a baby is abandoned at his paws, he is compelled to think differently.'
