The Tiger and the Acrobat Summary

The Tiger and the Acrobat by Susanna Tamaro

INCLUDES SPECIALLY COMMISSIONED LINE DRAWINGS

Little Tiger is not like other tigers. Not content to spend her days alone, roaming the snow forests of Siberia hunting prey, she prefers instead to ponder the ways of the world. One day, eager to discover her own place within it, she sets out on a remarkable journey to discover the secret of life, and to meet the creatures she has heard most about: humans.

A moving tale of bravery and spirit, The Tiger and the Acrobat is a celebration of the power of friendship, and a testament to the courage it takes to be true to ourselves.

'This book is a beaut.' Cecelia Ahern, author of P.S. I Love You
