This doodle was the first idea for the scene in the song "I just can't wait to be king" where Simba and Nala race on ostriches like race horses. The images in the Making of book were redrawn and re-polished, but this is the first thought.

I thought it was funny when Julie Taymor in her book about the Broadway Musical version said she "didn't get much from the movie".

Then I sat in the Pantages Theater, and watched dancers doing my jokes like this racehorse bit.
