There is a children's story about a lion that was roaring and he had a thorn in his paw, but because he wouldn't be still, the thorn kept getting pressed deeper in his paw. I think a mouse finally got him to calm down and the moust pulled it out. I am looking for the name of this book so that I can buy it for someone as a gift.

Aesop's Fables
This is actually a collection of such stories, not only the one about the Lion and Mouse.
