Christian has grown up fast, and became super popular. Customers mostly come to look in awe at the lion living at the shop. There was an incident where Christian was walking across a table, and slipped; scratching up the table. John and Ace felt terrible about this situation; they called the woman who purchased the table and explained the story to her. She was perfectly fine with the incident that occurred; she admitted the only reason she visited the shop was to see Christian, and the table was an afterthought. She still bought the table with the scratches on it in remembrance of Christian. When Christian became a celebrity in the public’s eye; the police advised that he be kept in the basement because he could pose a threat to people, and they wouldn’t want any accidents. Now John and Ace had to drive Christian down to the park where he gets his exercise. They made sure when he was running around through the bushes stalking them; they did not stand in the middle of the field to be sure any animal instincts were not triggered.
I was shocked at how many precautions John and Ace took to keep Christian from realizing he was a lion. They took every move and meal into consideration; all the way down to the way they talked to him and what he can play with. They used psychology to their advantage.
The organizational pattern the author uses is chronological order. He tells of Christian’s day and the normal activities Christian does throughout the day.
