Chapter Summary Of Simba's Life

THE LION KING IS A MOVIE ABOUT A LION CUB’S LIFE AND HIS JOURNEY TO THE ROYAL THRONE. THE KING OF THE PRIDE LANDS, MUFASA HAS A SON SIMBA. SIMBA GROWS UP IN A VERY PROTECTED ENVIRONMENT WITH CARING FRIENDS AND FAMILY. BUT HIS JEALOUS UNCLE SCAR TURN HIS LIFE INTO A TRAGEDY BY MURDERING MUFASA AND CONVINCING SIMBA THAT IT WAS HIS FAULT. SCAR TELLS SIMBA TO RUN AWAY AND NEVER COME BACK SO SIMBA DOES.

Simba then lives in a jungle with his friends Pumbaa the warthog and Timon the meerkat, they teach him a carefree life and “Hakuna Matata”. Simba lives there for some time until the day when the spirits of his father's spirits come to him and remind him who he really is and asks him to go back to the Pride Lands. So Simba goes back and defeats

Scar and gets back his rightful throne.

Simba’s goodness is mainly show through his actions. Simba is considered good because he got the courage to go back home after he ran away and defeated his evil uncle Scar, restoring the Pride Lands which was destroyed under Scar's leadership. Another reason is he grew from his mistakes and learned to put them behind him and move on. He learnt this from Timon and Pumbaa who taught him about hakuna matata.

Simbas decision influenced others, because he went home and saved the land after letting scar destroy it, if simba hadn't made the decision to come back home the Pride land and had the courage to fight his evil uncle Scar all of the animals that lived there would have been completely wiped out.

By coming back Simba saves the animals, this shows his loyalty. Simba displays honestly when he tell everyone from the land that he murdered his own father because scar made him believe that he did it.

The free will that Simba displayed in the lion king is the way he went back to the Pride lands, despite the fact the he thought everyone would hate him but Simba put others before himself and saved the land. Simba went back to his land because he had realised what scar had done to the land and Simba wanted to save the people. This shows that Simba didn't do this for himself he did it for the animals that he had let down with the decision he made when he was younger of running away and never returning.

Simbas strengths include his courage, putting the past behind him, and his fantastic leadership skills when he got back to the land by defending and protecting it and all the animals on it. For example Simba used his courage skills to go back to the pride lands even though he knew he would have to face his terrible

past.

Simbas weaknesses include forgetting who he was. This can be seen when he was in the jungle after taking bad advice from his uncle Scar.

An example of good experienced by the character is the way he fought and beat his evil uncle scar. Simba was very proud of himself for facing his fears and coming back to defend his land. This made Simba realise who he was and what king was really about.

An example of evil experienced by Simba is when his evil uncle scar killed Simba's father and made it look like Simba did it. This left simba feeling insecure about himself and worried about what the animals would think of him so he took bad advice from his evil uncle scar who wanted to become king, so simba ran away so he wouldn’t have to face the truth.
