Synopsis
Nicola Bayley's stunning illustrations perfectly complement this classic rhyming tale by Richard Adams, author of Watership Down.
A gentleman tyger and his son set sail from Victorian England into the timeless unknown. Together they roam across the seas, through jungles, past ice-covered mountains and erupting volcanoes and many more unexpected hazards along the way.

Review
"Bayley's pictures are characteristically painstaking and gentle, softly lit, finely worked and pretty." * Sunday Times * "The pictures are full of fascinating details, and her tigers are beautiful sensuous creatures." * Daily Telegraph * "Gorgeous." * Evening Standard * "Lively narrative ballad." * The Observer * "Full of charm and detail, there are elements of Rousseau and Dali and woodcuts and the Books of Hours." * Times Literary Supplement *
