Question

Which detail shows that the lion feels worried about being punished?

from My Father's Dragon
The more he clawed the worse it
became and the madder he
grew...
by Ruth Stiles Gannett
In this story, a boy tells a tale about his father. The
father's name is Elmer. When Elmer was a young boy
himself, he was on an adventure on Wild Island. He tried
to find a dragon. But everywhere he turned on the island,
there was something in his way.
“... if she sees me this way I'm
afraid she'll stop my allowance."
"... My mother is coming over on
the dragon this afternoon ..."
My father crept along and peered into a small clearing
just ahead. A lion was prancing about, clawing at his
mane. It was all snarled and full of blackberry twigs. The
more he clawed the worse it became and the madder he
grew and the more he yelled at himself.
The lion charged and skidded to
a stop a few inches away.
