The Tiger-Skin Rug

A thin old tiger longs for the company and food that living in the Rajah’s palace would provide and worms his way in by posing as a tiger-skin rug. At first all is well but then it becomes necessary to clean the moth-eaten ‘rug’ and the tiger fears discovery and banishment until an opportunity presents itself which will secure his future.

The matter-of-fact telling of the tale is complemented by the humour in the vibrantly coloured framed pictures in this recently reissued classic picture book.
