The Cowlick Crown

This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.

When two tiger cubs can’t agree on who gets to protect a chicken, the jungle gets its most unlikely leader.

Nugget never asked to be queen. She just wanted the tigers to stop “rescuing” her from perfectly comfortable perches. But when their custody battle accidentally thrusts her into the spotlight, suddenly everyone expects her to fix everything. Squirrels form committees. Sloths engineer weapons. Ancient prophecies appear whenever dramatically convenient. And in the shadows, a magnificently fluffy tiger rehearses speeches about his obvious destiny to rule it all.

A sharp satire skewering charismatic leadership, group dynamics, and the eternal human tendency to confuse good intentions with good governance, The Cowlick Crown asks: what if the problem isn’t the system, but that most of us have no idea what we’re doing?


“Sometimes the best leadership is admitting you’re making it up as you go along.”
