Akimbo and the lions

Akimbo and the lions is written by Alexander Mccall Smith.
Akimbo and the lions is one of my favorite books.
In this book Akimbo is the main character. He is a boy who lives in Africa.
Akimbo’s father says that there has been a lion attacking cattle in the village and he has to go to trap it. Akimbo wants to come with his father.
They make a trap to trap the lion. When they go to see if the lion has gotten trapped they realize that it was a female lion, and her cub had gotten trapped instead of her. The cub cannot live without its mother long so can Akimbo manage to raise it?
This is one of my favorite books and it is interesting. It is interesting to come to know how Akimbo manages to get the cub to drink milk.
