Tiger skin rug book.

Tiger skin rug my thoughts this was such a lovely book so easy to read i flew through it in one sitting. This is the most adorable book about a skinny tiger who gets a chance to live in the lap of luxury at a rajah s palace. In the throes of starvation the tiger poses as a tiger skin rug in order to eat leftovers in the palace. It is the story of an elderly starving tiger who decides to masquerade as a tiger skin rug in order to access the table scraps of the maharaja s family and therefore live a little longer.

Or maybe i should say the floor of luxury as he masquerades as a rug. It s a sadly difficult book to find these days. Our eyes stung seeing the tiger washed and our tummies tumbled at the sight of delicious indian treats and they got to sit on the floor to eat. It is the story of an elderly starving tiger who decides to masquerade as a tiger skin rug in order to access the table scraps of the maharaja s family and therefore live a little longer.

In the process he saves the life of the maharaja and becomes a much loved member of the family. Joan haig has constructed a magical story of peril and adventure that is completely captivating and any child of any age never mind the 8 12 year old target range would enjoy it. Full of beautiful imagry and wonderful characters you really are with lal dilip jenny and of course the tiger every step of the way.
