NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 18, 2003

In a heated auction, Lauri Hornik, Associate Publisher and Editorial Director of Dial Books for Young Readers, an imprint of Penguin Young Readers Group, won the U.S. and Canadian hardcover and paperback rights to Lion Boy, a children's adventure trilogy written by the writing team of "Zizou Corder" composed of mom, Louisa Young and her ten-year-old daughter, Isabel Adomakoh Young.

Lion Boy has already created a loud enough buzz in Britain to garner a feature film option from DreamWorks, SKG.
