'Befittingly for a book about how love can make us braver and stronger, Hoang Giang's illustrations glow magnificently?: ?her sunset-coloured depiction of Earnest surrounded by his favourite things, from blueberries to the perfect tree, is one of the most gorgeous picture book spreads I've seen all year.' - The Observer
A beautiful picture book for young children about love, friendship and how the things you love make you feel.
Who has a heart big enough to hold a lion?
Earnest is a bear with a big heart. He keeps all his favourite things inside his heart. When Earnest's heart is full, he feels as though he can do anything! But is his heart big enough to hold a lion? If we make room in our hearts for love, it leaves us feeling better and braver with bigger hearts than ever, even if love has to leave.

Hoang Giang is a Vietnamese illustrator, she grew up in Da Lat, a small town in highland of Vietnam. She always dreamt to be a mangaka since childhood but ended up graduating from a Finance and Banking BA degree due to family expectations. Luckily, after graduation, she immediately found a job as an illustrator for magazines for children and young adults. She learnt digital painting and traditional arts by herself during this time. In 2016, she decided to get herself proper education about storytelling so I went to Cambridge school of Art, UK to pursue her MA Illustrations and Book Arts.
