My mummy read me this book at night time and I liked reacting to when the tiger was being naughty and eating all of the little girls food. This book was also my mum's favourite growing up

The character I liked best was the tiger. The tiger comes for tea and he asks for more and more food and didn’t realise he had actually eaten all the food in the whole house. They went shopping and bought a big can of tiger food just incase he came to there house again so he would have something to eat this time but her never did.

I love this story but this is the first time I’ve read it myself. It was fun to read and imagine the voices and I love the story. It was also a nice break between big books.

I like how the tiger drinks and eats everything. It’s sad that he doesn’t come back.
