Description
An adorable new toddler character from the creator of Percy the Park Keeper Tiger isn't a real tiger. He's a kitten. But sometimes when he plays he pretends to be a real Tiger. He pretends that his soft, little, tigery paws! !are great, big, tigery claws! He pretends that his funny, little, tigery miaow! !is a loud, scary, tigery ROAR! And at the end of a long day of jumping and snarling and very fast running and quiet creeping and not playing with wool, Tiger really likes his bed! Just like a real Tiger!

Praise for The Whisperer: "We are not born with prejudice. We learn it. I welcome a book to help young people learn that our diversity is a gift -- a wonderful blessing from God. Let us celebrate it." Desmond Tutu Archbishop Emeritus "Butterworth's best yet!" Sunday Times Praise for QPootle5: "An alien story with a difference! There's lots of laughs in this friendly, funny story and we loved the wonderfully low-tech DIY spaceship." Practical Parenting Praise for Albert le Blanc: "Nick Butterworth is one of the best picture book writers alive." The Independent "Butterworth's drawings have a comforting clarity and his stories develop straightforwardly so the book works for just about everyone."
