Aunt Alice and the Lion

Themba and his brother and sister are excited that aunt Alice is coming to visit them in the village. When they arrive at the station to meet her, the children find Aunt Alice in a tree! She explains that she's hiding from a lion who wants to eat her. There's no sign of a lion but as the days pass and to the family's great amusement, Aunt Alice remains convinced that there's a hungry lion lurking behind every bush, just waiting to pounce. Could Aunt Alice be right?
