I like this book because it has a tiger and I my favourite animal is tigers. Best character was Tiger It was interesting because real Tiger was having real tea and actually came to have tea when he was hungry.

I liked the tiger the best, he ate all of the food in the house which was funny and i was happy when the family went out for dinner at the end so they got food too. I like changing my voice like mummy does when reading the tigers part in the book with her.

I love this book. The tiger came to tea and ate all of the stuff. And in the end the rest had nothing to eat. And they bought tiger food in case the tiger comes back
