One shy little girl spots a mysterious tiger’s tail swishing in the shadows and decides to follow it into the heart of the jungle. With every step, she grows in confidence, shedding her doubts and discovering an inner adventurer, until she finally comes face to face with the tiger himself...

A tender story of courage and self-esteem, encouraging little ones to tame their fears and reminding them that bravery doesn’t always have to roar – it can be as gentle as a whisper. This uplifting picture book is perfect for shy or sensitive children, combining reassuring words with gorgeously illustrated peek-through pages, and culminating in a very special pop-up surprise.

About the Author

Michelle Beech is an illustrator and author from Devon, UK. She enjoys inventing stories from her imagination and experiences. Living in South West England means that she is never far from woodland, moorland and coastline. This close relationship with nature strongly influences her work, which is often inspired by the magic and beauty of the natural world. She loves to create enchanting characters and dreamlike settings through her watercolour illustrations. Michelle studied Illustration BA (Hons) at Falmouth University and MA Illustration at Plymouth University.
