Another good thing about this book is the size of it, a large format makes it ideal for sharing, with pictures sprawling over big pages for anyone reading to study with ease.
Though in my opinion this does feel a little like [[Where the Wild Things Are by Maurice SendackSendak|Where the Wild Things Are]] presented to a younger audience – whether this is what the author and illustrator intended I'm not sure, but to me it seems like a nice homage rather than a problem. Its gentle pace works well at bedtime, while its vibrant colours should keep children enthralled in the world of Tigerbear.
Overall I thoroughly enjoyed this book and will certainly be keeping hold of a copy for bedtimes when my son is a little older. I'm sure he will spend many a happy night hoping to wake up in Tigerbear cave for a game of hide and seek with little Tigerbear!
I'd like to thank the publishers for sending a copy to the Bookbag.
Reading Suggestions : If you enjoyed this then you must certainly read [[Where the Wild Things Are by Maurice SendackSendak]], but also keep an eye out for [[The Emperor of Absurdia by Chris Riddell]] which has a similar theme and dreamy illustrations.
