ReviewsAction shots of the narrator defending himself against the menacing cat move the story along, while the girl's inability to see her brother's plight adds some comic relief. This is a good story to show how readers can get wrapped up in a book., "In the current run of titles about older siblings feeding younger ones, this one stands out for its inventive imagery." --Kirkus Reviews , Starred Review "Action shots of the narrator defending himself against the menacing cat move the story along, while the girl's inability to see her brother's plight adds some comic relief. This is a good story to show how readers can get wrapped up in a book." --School Library Journal "Ebbeler truly knocks it out of the park, gleefully building on Sheth's prose with dynamic perspectives, a realistically detailed (and menacing) tiger, abundant visual hyperbole, and unexpected delights on nearly every page." --Publishers Weekly , Starred Review, In the current run of titles about older siblings feeding younger ones, this one stands out for its inventive imagery., Ebbeler truly knocks it out of the park, gleefully building on Sheth's prose with dynamic perspectives, a realistically detailed (and menacing) tiger, abundant visual hyperbole, and unexpected delights on nearly every page., "Youngsters will love reading and re-reading this tale of adventure, creativity, and mystery. At the end, we don't know where the tiger will turn up next. The first person narrative invites the reader to participate in the story and feel a kinship with the main characters. This book begs for a sequel with the same bright colors, action, and imagination." -- Reviewed by Library Media Connection Magazine
