经典绘本，荣获英国绘本最高奖——凯特格林纳威奖
A
classic picture book reissued 32 years after first
publication
A thin, lonely tiger sees
his chance for a happy life with a rajah and his family and so
he
swaps places with a rug. All
goes quite well . . . for a while!
The brilliant art and wonderful text make this
the perfect picture book package
It''s amazing how easy it is
for the tiger to pass himself off as a rug - he enjoys a life
of
luxury with the rajah''s
family, snacking on midnight feasts and playing with his
children.
He goes entirely
undetected, until one night, when he risks expulsion from
his
comfortable abode as
burglars break into the palace and he has to decide whether
to
stay in disguise as a rug -
or save the rajah from a horrible beating.
However, tigers who live in
houses can have happy endings, as seen in this
utterly
brilliant picture
book.
關於作者：
Gerald Rose was born in Hong
Kong. When the Second World War started, his
father
became a prisoner of war, and
Gerald and his mother were interned in a civilian
camp,
which was where he saw his
first live tiger.
Frustrated by the dearth of
good illustrated books for children, his wife, Elizabeth,
helped
him to write and illustrate a
number of books. Gerald won the Kate Greenaway Medal
in
1960 for Old Winkle and
the Seagulls and won the Premio Critici in 1979 in Erba, Italy
for
‘Ahhh!'' Said
Stork. Gerald now lives in
Hove, East Sussex.
