Determined not to have fun or find anything of interest in the garden, her outlook turns completely around. Nora and Jeff, her giraffe, are bored at Grandma’s, there is nothing to do. When Grandma suggests they go for a walk in the garden to look for the tiger, Nora does not believe her. Nor does she believe there are dragonflies as big as birds, plants that can eat you whole, and a grumpy polar bear. But off her and Jeff set anyway, reluctant at first until discoveries are made.

The afternoon before Mr H arrived I did a craft activity with Mr D and Miss E based on a new favourite books of ours – the wonderful There’s a Tiger in the Garden by Lizzy Stewart.Children can make their own beautiful pop-up book using this imaginative kit, a little glue, and following simple step-by-step instructions. The result is a series of magical gardens--French, Japanese, Arabian, tropical, and dreamlike--through which a mysterious tiger wanders.

In an attempt to cure her granddaughter's boredom, a grandmother casually mentions that there is a tiger in her garden. The resulting, fruitful search is enough to dent the certainty of even the most sceptical of child explorers! Research the animals in the book. Look at their habitat, food they eat. In a class situation, each child finds one interesting fact they did not know before to share with the class. For the dragonflies I got out various crafty items, tissue paper, sequins and the such and drew some very rough dragonflies for the children to decorate. They had great fun adding the bits and pieces to them and decorating them up. A Tiger In The Kitchen written by Cheryl Lu-Lien Tan and has been published by Hachette UK this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2011-02-08 with Biography & Autobiography categories. I love the discussions we have had after reading this book; Mr D in particular is unsure if the tiger is real or not… and I love that he is at this stage of his comprehension at the moment too where he can ask questions and I can help aid his understanding of the story. The story touches on some lovely philosophical ideas which can be challenging for adults let alone children to consider, but it does so in such a gentle way.Imagination is at the heart of this book and, in my experience, year two children ably entertain two understandings of its content, one in which they interpret the tiger as real, and another in which he is a product of Nora's (and grandma's) imagination; visual clues as to the origin of the more exotic characters abound in the illustrations and suggest the tiger is in fact grandma's ginger cat and the polar bear a soft toy, while, inevitably, the carnivorous plants are innocuous bushes. The book encourages children to use their powers of observation and imagination, and they readily engage with the story and its message.
