![]() Higgins follows the now-classic Elephant and Piggie format of large font, color-keyed word bubbles, repetition, crisply defined figures, and utterly goofy humor, but Tiger’s hilarious histrionics are next level, sure to elicit hiccupping giggles and inspire both librarian and kid performers. ![]() The story takes an absurd turn as worms appear, appreciating the goodies Tiger has jettisoned and learning about tigers from the book (which is about tigers, not worms), and then chasing Tiger down for a great big worm hug. The oversized kitty similarly reacts to a book that is possibly-just possibly- about worms, tossing the book and making a run for it. Fearing worms, Tiger throws an apple to the ground, resulting in a sadly smashed (and wormless) apple. ![]() Toylike Tiger might consider himself big and brave, but the possibility of encountering wiggly, squiggly worms gives the big cat the willies every time.
