Sometimes, our biggest problem is merely our greatest blessing in disguise. That’s what happened to Chris, a young tiger who spent all his life in a zoo until bullying forced him to look for another way to live his life.
Filled with colorful and attractive illustrations that would capture the attention and imagination of children, “Chris, the Tiny-Tailed Tiger” by Susan George is a wonderful tale worth telling your ones. Not only would it teach your child to not judge one’s appearance, but it would also equip him with the priceless virtue of perseverance.
This book is recommended for parents, teachers and guardians who would like to spend quality time with children. It is a light and easy read but it is also fun and full of lessons that would last years after the story had been read.
Using animals as characters in the story, children who have visited the zoo could easily create a mental picture that’s easy to recall and relate to. Rhymes are also present, making the book far easier and more fun to read.
Being a book based on a story written by the author’s husband when he was a second-grader, it is definitely a tale from the young to the young and young at heart. Let Chris inspire you in this wonderful story of courage, hope and determination.
Always remember that being different is never a hindrance to reaching one’s full potential. We can still reach our dreams and live a meaningful life if we keep on believing and never give up.
