Tiger Boy (Red Fox Read Alone) Book

This unusual little book, with its bold text and vivid black and white illustration, tells the story of Tim and his obsession with tigers. As time goes by, he starts to find more about this exotic creatures, and becomes concerned about the fact that there are fewer and fewer tigers every year. As Tim starts thinking of ways in which he can help stop tigers disappearing altogether, he notices strange things are starting to happen to his body: he starts to grow fur and his nails turn into claws. And then one day, he realises that he has turned into a real tiger. If you are looking for a great book for a child who is just getting to grips with reading, and is looking for something a little bit out of the ordinary to read alone, then Tiger Boy combines an important message with a fantastical story that cannot fail to keep new, young readers gripped from beginning to end.
