What is Big Tiger about?
Big Tiger used to be small, but now he is the oldest and biggest tiger in his family. Feeling brave, he sets off to explore the jungle, only to discover that the world around him is even bigger, louder and more frightening than he expected. Luckily, Mum is never far away. As Big Tiger takes his first steps towards independence, he learns that growing up does not mean leaving comfort and love behind—and that nobody is ever too big for a hug.
