Text from Watch Out the Tiger is Here – Picture book for young children about tigers
It’s not easy being a tiger.
Yes, tigers are beautiful and fierce.
But tigers are also big and heavy.
This makes it difficult for them to hunt for food.
Out of every twenty times a tiger hunts, it eats only once.
When a tiger moves through the forest,
KHAU! KHAU! KHAK!
The langur calls, just like an old man coughing!
KHAU! KHAU! KHAK!
AWOOOO! HAWOOOO!
The barking deer calls, like a scared dog!
AWOOOO! HAWOOOO!
OOW! OOW! OOW!
The spotted deer calls, like a little bird!
OOW! OOW! OOW!
The whole forest knows the tiger is here!
AHUUUN? AHUUUN?
The tiger wonders, where has everyone gone?

y e s ! ! ! ! ! ! ! I liked it.
Oh, my poor tiger….
Tiger is so fast from what I see…
He will probably be hungry.
I really love Rohan Chakravarty’s cat images in this one and in Wild Cat! Wild Cat! And the story is well written for young children, and a great early reader, short length, simple and entertaining.
