One of a new series telling young children about baby animals, this attractive story information book lets us in on the details of a young tiger’s life. It’s presented both as narrative and non-fiction.
We discover the little cub first fast asleep in a cosy den with the tiger Mamma; lift the full-size flap and you’ll find two pages of information about where tigers live – the size of a newborn cub is nicely illustrated via an illustration of a set of scales, tiger cub on one side, bag of sugar on the other.
The story continues as the tiger cub grows bigger, play-fighting with his siblings, learning how to hunt, and even going for a swim. There are more pages of facts and information under flaps including a life size drawing of a tiger’s tooth. Both presentation styles will engage children’s attention and spark their understanding while Carolina Rabei’s gorgeous illustrations are full of life and detail.
A book to develop knowledge and an interest in these majestic creatures.
