There's a Tiger in My Backpack

  • A poetic story about friendship
  • By award-winning translator and lyricist Uwe-Michael Gutzschhahn

A poetic story about the power of imagination with phenomenally colourful and cheerful illustrations. Ben has a cat. Mum does not believe him. But Ben is absolutely sure. He named the cat Tiger and carries him around in his backpack. Tiger does not want to show himself though. He sleeps a lot and gets scared when everyone wants to see him.That’s totally believable, isn’t it? But how did the cat get into the backpack at all? “He simply jumped,” Ben says. Only Lili, Ben’s friend who believes Ben without questioning, is allowed to take a peek in the end.
