Summary

Read by Geraldine McEwan. This classic story has been loved by millions of children since it was first published over 40 years ago.

The doorbell rings just as Sophie and her mummy are sitting down to tea. Who could it possibly be? What they certainly don't expect to see at the door is a big furry, stripy tiger!

©1968 Judith Kerr (P)2013 HarperCollins Publishers Limited

Critic reviews

"A modern classic." ( The Independent)
"This book has enduring charm and young children will delight in the preposterous notion of a tiger creating mayhem in the house." ( Junior Magazine)

Fun story

A lovely story enjoyed by daughters. Humorous and entertaining. Lovely music and good sound effects creating the atmosphere. Read aloud very well with some good voices for different characters. Enjoyable

3 year old loves it

Great audio version of the book. Lots of sound effects and longer than the book. My daughter acts out the story and I have to play the tiger while she feeds me things from her play kitchen.
