The Tiger Like Me
by Kelsey Lee
GENRE: Children's
BLURB:
The Tiger Like Me is the story of a brave young girl who dares to be different. Following the call of her adventurous spirit, she encounters inspiring creatures of the jungle who remind her to face her fears, recognize the beauty of the present moment, and to walk the path less traveled.
Excerpt:
Day by day we use our voice, not only for noise but for speaking our choice.
Night by night, we move through fear; we know this is how to pioneer. Beyond our worry, the way shines clear, and the thoughts that limit us, soon disappear.
We are all diverse, yet one and the same. No matter the challenge, break the chain. Shine like a star to be who you are.
Raise your voice with vigour, to see your potential grow bigger. This is your gift, so be as you are. If you forget your way, then look to the stars.30
In the darkness of night, shoot for the moon. Always remember, the light returns soon.
My Review:
A young girl Abhi has seven sisters who sit around all day in their pretty little gowns playing games. Abhi’s mother wants Abhi to wear pretty gowns and be like her sisters but she cannot as that is not who she is. Abhi is more adventurous than her sisters.
She likes to play pranks on her mother and sisters. She likes to sing and dance in the rain and play in the mud holes. Abhi doesn’t want to be like everyone else she just wants to be herself.
Abhi is the kind of person who likes to face her fears head-on and not let them control her. She is strong and proud of who she is. Abhi will take on any risk or dare.
One day Abhi’s sisters tell her to go into the jungle and not to come out until they tell her to. Abhi being the kind of person to take on any dare goes into the forest as they ask.
In the forest, Abhi meets a lot of different animals who quickly become her friends. She meets a tiger and faces any fears she may have had of the tiger. She stands tall and proud letting the tiger know that they are alike even if they do not look the same. Abhi has a great adventure in the forest meeting some new and great friends.
The Tiger Like Me is a great story to teach children to stand up for what they believe in and to be their selves and to face their fears head-on and know that it is ok to be different.
I enjoyed Abhi’s little adventure in the forest and seeing all the animals. Abhi is a strong and brave little girl who knows who she is. I loved the illustrations they were remarkably well done they helped me to see Abhi’s world better.
Now the time has come for you to one-click your copy of The Tiger Like Me to join Abhi on her adventure through the forest! I do highly recommend this little gem to all children looking for an adventure!
