Book Reviews of The Tiger Who Came to Tea
Book Review: Excellent book
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a nice little story. The story is ridiculous- which is why my toddler/almost pre-schooler and I love it. And the language is not baby-ish, it is a proper book. This is a book that will span many years of reading.
Storyline is that a tiger came over and ate and drank everything in the house so when Father got home from work there was nothing for dinner. So he suggests going out to a cafe for dinner.
I liked this book so much I have looked up other books by this author that i plan to buy. I will also give this book as a gift.
Summary of The Tiger Who Came to Tea
A voracious guest makes a surprise visit in this ferociously popular tale, first published more than forty years ago.ONCE THERE WAS A LITTLE GIRL CALLED SOPHIE,
AND SHE WAS HAVING TEA WITH HER MUMMY IN THE KITCHEN.
SUDDENLY, THERE WAS A RING AT THE DOOR.
When the doorbell rings unexpectedly one afternoon, Sophie and her mummy can?t imagine who might be there. Much to their surprise, a tiger with a very large appetite has come to tea! What will they tell Daddy when he returns home and finds all the cupboards bare? First published in 1968, this classic and whimsical picture book from beloved children?s author and illustrator Judith Kerr is a delightful (and delicious!) story about the best way to entertain an unexpected houseguest, even when that guest just so happens to be a tiger.
