When Marmaduke the tabby cat discovers a picture of a tiger in a discarded magazine, he decides they must be related-after all, they both have yellow eyes and stripes! Marmaduke boasts about his new-found relative to all of his cat friends, who are very impressed. They decide to go visit Uncle Tiger at the zoo, where see all sorts of strange animals. But the biggest surprise of all is Marmaduke's g-r-r-r-reat uncle tiger! Accompanied by Alex Ayliffe's bright, full-color cut-paper illustrations, this gently humorous story about a boastful cat who learns a lesson will delight young children. REVIEW: "Cheerily illustrated....this picture book showcases both Riordan's concise storytelling...and Ayliffe's humor-imbued, color-drenched paper-cutting."-- Publishers Weekly IRA/CBC 1996 Children's Choice Award Winner
