The story describes Benny, the lion cub's journey towards beating his kids' separation anxiety issues while thoroughly outlining his parents' strategies to help him. Benny starts as a young cub with severe fears of separation. He won't be away from his parents for a second. His anxiety causes him to miss activities that require separation from his parents and forces his parents to constantly be attached to him. Benny's mother and father ask themselves, "how can we help our child who can't say goodbye?" Things change radically when Benny and his parents meet an old and wise lioness. She guides them on a journey through which Benny learns to overcome his separation anxiety. At the same time, his parents understand what their beloved child goes through and how to support their child's separation anxiety. It is very hard to eliminate or stop kids' separation anxiety altogether. Still, it is very much possible to learn how to overcome it. Benny's journey was not easy; along the way, he and his parents had to overcome one challenge after another.
