A Tiger Like Me. This item is unavailable.A Tiger Like Me

A Goodreads Choice Award finalist.

Life is more fun when you’re a tiger like me!

A little boy―um, no, a tiger!―tells us all about what he gets up to on an ordinary day: how he wakes up in his tiger den, what he eats for breakfast at his feeding spot, and how little tigers feel when they are wide awake, hungry, thirsty, or in the mood for adventures. But at night, even the wildest of tigers is happy to curl up in bed with Tiger-Mom and Tiger-Dad and become a cuddly little tiger cub.

With warm illustrations and playful text, this delightful story first published in Germany shows just how sweet life can be for a little tiger!
