Shhh! The tiger is sleeping

Shhh! The tiger is sleeping' is a surprising and interactive picture book by Britta Teckentrup. What is special is that the balloons in the drawings are shiny, so that they look just like real balloons.

The tiger is sleeping...
Shhh! The tiger is sleeping and we don't want to wake her up. There is only one problem: all the animals have to get past her and she is terribly in the way. How are they going to solve that? Fortunately, the clever frog has an idea: all the animals float over the tiger one by one with a balloon.

The reader has to help
But the animals do need help. The reader is therefore encouraged to get the animals safely over the tiger by blowing, stroking, rocking and even singing a lullaby. Will all the animals manage to get to the other side safely? And tell me, what are all those balloons for?
