Description

Find out about the incredible ways tigers and other big cats live and survive with hilarious cartoon strips.

Tigers and other big cats may be incredible predators with few natural enemies, but being the world's biggest cats can still be tough! In this book, cartoon strips explore why a tiger cub can easily get into trouble, why jaguars' habitats are in danger, and why even the king of the jungle has it tough.

Alongside the cartoon strips, we explore topics such as the variety of cat species, food chains, habitats, and threats, to build a picture of life as a big cat.

It's Tough to Be is a series of fun educational books that help children aged 7 plus understand how animals adapt to survive in different habitats. Each book features hilarious cartoon strips and incredible science facts.

A Tiger (and other cats) / A Shark (and other sea creatures) / A Black Mamba (and other snakes) / A T-rex (and other dinosaurs) / An Eagle (and other birds) / A Giant Panda (and other bears)
