Tiger Trail
Gr 1-4-In poetic text, Winters writes about short episodes in a big cat's life: in the den with her kits, hunting, in danger from a leopard, teaching her young to swim and hunt. The story begins and ends with the words, "I am the tigress. I walk alone," thus leaving out any information about mating. Regan's gorgeous oil-and-gouache illustrations cover the double-page spreads and complement the drama of the text. A good first introduction to this majestic animal that will have youngsters clamoring for more.-Sally Bates Goodroe, Harris County Public Library, Houston, TXCopyright 2001 Cahners Business Information, Inc.
