Customer Reviews

Classic title - Rated 5/5
My little daughter loved this at bedtime. The moral - that which appears on the outside to be frightening and threatening need not be so upon examination - is such an important one for children to appreciate; an antidote to the prevailing scare culture where middle-class children are increasingly driven everywhere in a vehicle and kept from playing out on the street and taught to shun strangers.

A gentle, warm story with ditto illustrations. Magic!


BRILL BOOK - Rated 5/5
One day, there was a knock at the door of Sophie's house, just as she and her mummy were going to have tea, but the milkman had already come and it was not the day for the boy from the grocer; it could not be daddy because he was coming home a little bit later and he had his keys. Who was the mysterious being at the door? Find out in this book...

This book is wonderful: the illustrations are vivid and bright; the vocabulary range is good for children aged from 4 - 7 and the story line is delightful. It is a truly superb book.

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book with my brother (who enjoyed it as well) and would rate it, for myself and on behalf of my brother, 10/ 10.


"But the tiger didn't just take one cake, he took all the cakes on the plate!" - Rated 5/5
I bought the anniversary edition (with touchy-feely tiger stripes) for my son who is almost three and we have been reading it constantly. The story is easy to follow and features a loveable tiger who turns up for tea and ends up eating everything in the house. I remember enjoying this book when I was at school 25 years ago. It hasn't changed one bit.


Very sweet, we like it already - Rated 4/5
A friend bought this book for our son's Christmas because she said she had loved it herself as a child. We just dug it out this week, and already our little boy (20 months) is hooked. He loves identifying all the bits & bobs in the pictures (for some reason the brushes were especially fascinating tonight), and I like speculating what on earth inspired Judith Kerr to write the story, because it is very very odd.

Our household is terribly old-fashioned in that my husband works and I stay at home to look after our son, and we do like to go out for dinner sometimes, so this book is especially appealing to us because it sort of reflects our life. I just hope that if any tigers do come to tea, they will be as polite and smiley as the tiger in this book!


What is the tiger doing in the kitchen cupboard? - Rated 5/5
This is a superb children's book, but there is no doubt in my mind that on one of the pages the tiger is doing something unmentionable in the kitchen cupboard - and the theme is repeated in the street scene later on.

Is there a subtext here? I think we ought to be told.
