One morning bored Tiger decides he wants to try and find other animals that look just like him, so he packs his bag, grabs his passport, and flies off to Africa, leaving his friend Tim a plane ticket to join him.

When Tim arrives in Africa he doesn’t have the heart to tell Tiger that there are no animals like him there as tigers live in the jungles of Asia. They do however come across lots of different animals that have their home in Africa such as lions, giraffes, hippos, and even zebras, which Tiger thinks looks like him with their stripes, fur, and four legs.

Tiger and Tim’s African Jungle Adventure! is the first book in a new series featuring a friendly young Tiger and his human friend Tim. The book is adventurous and educational too, in a fun way. It has bright, colourful cartoon illustrations that make the story come alive.

The text is kept to a minimum which is perfect for new readers, whilst the plot is exciting and features lots of animals and we all know that children love books featuring animals.

Alongside the book author, Tim Hague has created a website for children which includes videos of Tiger and Tim’s adventures, as well as fun facts and activities that they can do at home.

My advice for parents/guardians is to purchase the book in paperback if you only have a normal Kindle (such a paperwhite) as they don’t show the colourful illustrations and the text is quite dark and hard to read, lessening the enjoyment of what is an exciting and fun read.
