A Lion in the Meadow is a kid's book by Margaret Mahy. It is her first book.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })It follows an unnamed little boy who observes a "big, roaring, yellow, whiskery lion" in the meadow outside his house and tries to tell his mother, but she dismisses his claims as "nonsense".Eventually, she decides to humour him by claiming that there's a dragon in a matchbox which will grow huge and chase away the lion, but then it turns out to be true... and the lion can talk.A Lion in the Meadow provides examples of | |

Tertiary Sexual Characteristics | |
| A Lion in the Meadow / int_6e6b8ca7 | comment |
In one version of the book, the boy has a sibling, but their gender is unclear because, while they have short hair, they're only a baby, and they lack any Tertiary Sexual Characteristics. The family also has a cat in this version, but its gender is also unrevealed (though it is a ginger cat, so it's statistically more likely to be male). | |

All Animals Are Domesticated | |
| A Lion in the Meadow / int_8661b469 | comment |
All Animals Are Domesticated: The lion eventually becomes a "house lion" in the revised ending. Justified in that he's a Vegetarian Carnivore and can talk. | |

Adults Are Useless | |
| A Lion in the Meadow / int_a939d96a | comment |
Adults Are Useless: The mother fails to notice the lion in the meadow even when he roars, and when she hands the boy the match box, she fails to realise there's actually a dragon in it. | |

Accidental Truth: The mother thinks she just made up the dragon, but then the "story" turned out to be true after all. | |
