Explanation:

The Wonderful Wizard of Oz is a children's fiction written by Lyman Frank Baum. The novel comprises of adventures of Dorothy and her pet Toto to a land of Oz.

In Chapter 21, when Dorothy along with her companions were passing by a forest, they came to know about the threat that has entered the forest recently. The people of the forest pleaded with the lion to defeat the enemy and in return he would be crowned their king.

The threat that lately came to the forest was in a giant spider as large as an elephant with legs as long as trees, who devoured many animals in the forest. The Lion, then, went to place where the spider was sleeping and in his sleep, the lion slayed the spiders head with one blow from his heavy paw armed with sharp claws. So, the lion wisely and cunningly defeated the threat in hiss sleep.
