 A grumpy tiger named Herman doesn’t like the noisy zoo. One day, a blue egg rolls down between Herman’s paws. He decides to look after it until someone comes. “Nobody will dare lay a claw on a tiger egg.” He builds a nest for it and the egg starts to crack. Out comes a tiny, hungry, wet bird with enormous feet. Herman brings food and teaches the tiny bird to ROAR, though it’s more of a TWEET. This tale of family, differences, and the power of love is enhanced with brightly colored illustrations. mjw |
