PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
An unexpected guest arrives at Sophie's house and eats more than his fair share in The Tiger Who Came to Tea (1968) by Judith Kerr, conveyed in charming scenes that reflect 1960s sensibilities; and the language is deliciously British ("They had a lovely supper with sausages and chips and ice cream").
Customer Reviews
Such a shame
Great book but unfortunately the full story doesn't work!!!! Please fix!
Fantastic!
What a wonderful thing it is to see this book brought to life after all these years! The video is a great added bonus.
Excellent, despite the missing video
This is my favourite children's iBook. The story is superb and so is the narration. The animation is cute and perfectly suited to the style. Like the other reviewers have noted, the video at the end doesn't work, but its only a compilation of the animations on each page, so you don't miss out on any content. Highly recommended.
