I Would Rather Hug a Tiger
I Would Rather Hug a Tiger by Lorna Scobie
Small Panda would much rather be doing anything than boring everyday jobs. Why brush your teeth when you could snorkel with a crocodile, ride a tiger, or fly with an eagle? But as one hilarious adventure leads to another, Panda begins to realise that the “exciting” things in life aren’t always the most important—and maybe, just maybe, grown-ups aren’t as boring as they seem. With laugh-out-loud moments, bold and colourful illustrations, and a relatable theme for little rebels everywhere, this is a joyful read-aloud that celebrates curiosity, imagination, and life’s little moments. Perfect for sparking conversations about balancing fun with life’s everyday routines.
