Baby Tiger

Tozie is the smallest cub in the family but the 'quickest at learning things' when mother tiger teaches her triplets to understand sounds and smells and recognise danger. Eventually she takes them with her on a night-time hunting trip. When Tozie gets lost he remembers mother teaching him 'to stop and think, and stay right there'. This he does, looking and listening until she returns to find him. The night-time jungle scene is reminiscent of The Lion King backdrop, but there is some inconsistency in the depiction of night-time. This book has a reassuring feel, the colours of the illustrations are bold and bright, and it ends with a fact-file on tigers which many will find of interest.
