Format:Hardcover
A great story with plenty of scope for a fun read-aloud session with your little ones ... love all the captions about a kitten who would like to be a tiger, especially the one about 'not playing with wool'. As a veteran story teller I know many of you will agree that the more we enjoy reading a book to our children, the more they will enjoy listening, so great importance lies with whether we love the story or not and this one has been read hundreds of times and I'm still not bored with it. Another book for keeps.

Format:Paperback
This book is perfect for nights when the kids are really tired, but still want to hear a story before bed. We read it really slowly, word by word, and it has the same relaxing effect as a slightly longer book, while not taking much time to read. I personally love the idea of the story, a kitten pretending to be a tiger, and I think the way Nick Butterworth tells it is understated and very elegant. My favourite is the page about NOT playing with wool...
The pictures are excellent: bold, bright and clear like computer-generated images, yet retaining the detailed feel of hand-drawn art.

A wonderful story, beautifully illustrated. Took out for my son from the local library, immediately ordered as it's definitely one to keep.
