Tiger, Tiger

A young boy who lives deep in the jungle and has no playmates, conjures a tiger as a beautiful soul mate. With every move of his hand, by using his imagination he makes a beautiful tiger. When is comes to life, thee is possible danger, and the boy soon learns how to make the dangerous tiger disappear.

There are beautiful illustrations, and this is a lovely story regarding the use of the imagination.

Picture book about a little boy named Pocu who lives in the jungle. No one will play with him so he runs off into the trees with his big imagination. There, he conjures up a beautiful tiger who soon becomes dangerous. Pocu must find a way to reverse his imagination and return to his family.

I don't think I would use this book in my classroom. It's a little outdated and written by a white author speaking on a culture not of her own.

What a great read aloud. Gorgeous evocative illustrations of the jungle and the danger that lurks there.
