Riassunto

Featuring two-colour illustrations that won the Biennale of Illustrations Bratislava 1999, this beautifully handmade children's book offers a whimsical poem for small children about a wild tiger cub that wanders into a village. A group of villagers spot him - but what they don't realise is that he is as frightened as they are. A bold and adventurous book with all the makings of a children's classic, the art, verse and typography run and bounce off the page, pursuing the tiger in his misadventures.

L'autore

One of our most prolific children's book writers, Anushka Ravishankar has slowly but surely been securing her status as one of the best children's writers of her generation. Her expansive talent shines most brilliantly in her works of nonsense verse – jubilant and artful adaptations of this difficult genre to the cadences of Indian English. Said to be the pioneer of this form, she has earned national and international acclaim for her nine verse books released over the last decade. Rights to her books have been snapped up around the world and she has over 12 awards to her name. Her books owe their success not only to her fabulous verse, but to her willingness to collaborate and experiment with many different artists and designers – whether working with Swiss textile artists or veteran Indian illustrators, the best aspect of Anushka's work is the cohesion she creates between the text, typography and artwork of each scene.
