Summer Book Review - Don't Wake Up the Tiger

I have another fun book from Candlewick Press which I'm happy to share with you today - Don't Wake Up the Tiger  written and illustrated by Britta Teckentrup. This book not only has a fun story with colorful illustrations, but it engages children in the telling of the story, making it very memorable!

Favorite Features -

• Colorful - brightly so - illustrations, filled with so much fun!
• Engaging story - children get to "help" tell the story and this makes the story so much more fun!
• Unexpected ending - children will be delighted with how this story ends!

Candlewick Press says, "Tiger is fast asleep. But — oh dear! — she’s completely blocking the way. Just how will the animals get past without waking her up? Luckily, Frog has an excellent idea. Holding his balloon, he floats right over sleeping Tiger! Fox is next, followed by Tortoise, Mouse, and Stork, but it will be tricky for them all to get past without Tiger noticing. It’s a good thing the reader is there to help keep Tiger asleep, but where exactly are the animals going with all those big shiny balloons?"

I love stories with fun characters, bright illustrations, and activity to involve the children with the telling of the story - Don't Wake Up the Tiger has all these things making it a fantastic book to give to a child you love!
