The Tiger Who Came to Tea

This is a classic children’s book and it’s easy to see why it’s still popular. The story is simple but engaging, which makes it perfect for younger children. I’ve found it works really well for bedtime as it’s not too long, but still holds attention all the way through. The illustrations are also a nice touch and help keep kids interested. It’s one of those books that can be read multiple times without getting old, which is always important with children’s books. There aren’t really any negatives to it — it does exactly what you’d want from a book at this level. Overall, a great addition to any child’s bookshelf and one that gets used regularly.

Delightful Classic — Whimsical & Charming! The Tiger Who Came to Tea is such a lovely and timeless children’s book! The story is simple but utterly charming — a tiger unexpectedly visits Sophie and her mum for tea, and hilarity ensues as he eats and drinks everything in the house. My little one giggles every time we read it! The illustrations are bright, expressive, and full of fun details that keep kids engaged from start to finish. It’s a great read-aloud book that sparks imagination and conversation — and even adults enjoy the playful humour. Perfect for young children learning about storytelling and routines, but funny enough to be read over and over again. A true classic that deserves a spot on every child’s bookshelf!

The Tiger Who Came to Tea is an absolute treasure! This charming, beautifully illustrated book has captivated my child’s imagination and become a favorite in our bedtime routine. The story is delightfully simple: a polite yet ravenous tiger visits Sophie and her mother, eats everything in sight, and then leaves. It’s quirky, fun, and packed with a sense of wonder that children adore. The illustrations are warm and engaging, and the tiger is drawn in a way that feels friendly rather than scary—perfect for little ones. While the plot may be simple, that’s exactly what makes it so special. It feels like a slice of a child’s imagination brought to life. This book has been a classic for decades for a reason. It’s ideal for young kids, easy to read aloud, and great for sparking creativity. I also loved the nostalgic charm it brought to storytime—I remember reading it when I was a child, and I’m thrilled to share it with my own family. Highly recommend this to anyone looking for a timeless picture book!

Funny and adorable story

An old classic, bought as a gift for a friends new born. Nostalgic and so good!

Very good condition book and story is also very interesting for my boy. The book was as described by the seller. I will definitely purchase more books from this seller.

Grandsons love this book Great value for money quick delivery

Uno dei libri più belli per bambini che abbia mai letto, e di libri per bambini ora che mio figlio ha 2 anni e mezzo, in casa ne abbiamo ben 150, di cui 100 in italiano e 50 in inglese (tra cui questo, di cui raccomando la versione inglese. La versione Italiana non la conosco, ma mi piace l’idea dell’ironia inglese che è davvero piacevole in questo libro che temo possa andar persa se tradotta in un’altra lingua). Mio figlio adora leggere insieme a me questo libro tra tanti, anche io che son la madre lo leggo sempre molto volentieri facendo le voci dei personaggi e varie domande su cosa pensa. Ora, a distanza di mesi, inizia a imitare il tono e ad anticipare le frasi e la cosa mi fa molto sorridere oltre che piacere. Lo straconsiglio, 5 stelle!!!

This is a beloved story my children enjoyed when they were young. I was thrilled to be able to purchase it for the next generation. Beautiful illustrations and a winning story.

Our 2 year old is obsessed and asks for this book to be read to him multiple times a day. He points to most illustrations and says what it happening on each page. 11 out of 10 book.

Meu filho de 7 anos amou esse livro, a escola enviou o livro para leitura em casa mas ele gostou tanto que me fez comprar
