Tiger
wants to make a cake. A chocolate cake. The four other animals want to make one
too but none of them likes chocolate. Tiger is bossy and mean and won’t listen
to any other suggestions but rabbit, bear, dog and monkey have their own way in
the end. Or do they? Children and adults may put a very different interpretation
on the resolution of the story.
Bright
colours, speech bubbles and full of situations that will be familiar to all
children.
