The lion-cub escapade, he's maybe seven or eight, he's hidden it in his room and when his parents come in to talk to him and see it, he calmly reproaches them for not knocking and says his privacy is very important to him. Amelia asks him what he'd have done if she had knocked, and he says, with all the assurance of someone who has thought of everything, "I would have put the lion under the bed."
His uncle and aunt have a big estate with extensive grounds, and they I guess started a menagerie. The kid suggested it right after being found out; the book ends by saying the lion had settled in nicely, and the aunt and uncle were suggesting they bring back a female next year.
