Synopsis:
"I'm going to eat
you, little muskrat,"
said the tiger.
"Wait!" said the muskrat.
"I want to tell you a story."
"Okay," said the tiger,
"but make it quick!"
Clever muskrat!
He knows just how to outwit a very hungry tiger: tell him a story.
Silly tiger!
Tigers shouldn't listen to muskrats and their stories...especially clever muskrats with clever stories.
Tom Willans creates a delightful read-aloud to complement his quirkily rendered animals. The surprise ending will have children laughing and asking for the story to be read again and again.
About the Author: Tom Willans was born in St. Albans, England, in 1975. After attending Verulam School, Tom achieved a B.A. degree in graphics and illustration at Bath University. His first job in publishing was as a designer and paper engineer with David Bennett Books, where he helped create many ingenious pop-up books. He continues to work in publishing and is currently on stage in Two Planks and a Passion, a play by the acclaimed movie director Anthony Minghella. This is Tom's first book for children.
