Tyger! Tyger! - Hardcover
A little way into the darkness of the jungle, the young monk heard a stirring and held a light into the darkness. As foretold, two tiny cubs scrambled out from their hiding place and climbed into his arms. ~ From Tyger! Tyger! --- This beautifully illustrated moving fable expresses a hope for harmony between the human and animal worlds. Tyger! Tyger! is inspired by an actual Buddhist monastery in Thailand that for years has been a sanctuary for the beautiful Indo-Chinese tiger, one of the world's most endangered species.

Review:
"Both children and adults will be moved by this beautifully illustrated fable."--Animal Welfare Institute "Tyger! Tyger! demonstrates the physical connection and the spiritual bond between humans and animals, illustrated in rich blues, oranges, and greens and velvety textures. The beautiful and 'fearful symmetry' of the tigers, the two-page spreads, and the darkness lifted by the tigers and the monks' images are riveting." Multicultural Review "[a] one-of-a-kind picturebook for anyone who has ever admired the tiger."--Children's Bookwatch
