The Rat and the Tiger

Praise

“Friendships cause trouble as often as enmities do, and this is a sweet and prickly tale of friendship with which many young mammals will empathize. Kasza’s airy line-and-watercolor art keeps the situation from becoming heavy, as do the animals’ expressions: Tiger’s goofy face marks him as more thoughtless than bullying, and Rat’s woebegone and sorrowful countenance offers both comedy and pathos.” —The Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books

“Kasza’s lively, deftly painted animals are as expressive as ever. An appealing package for an ever-important message.” —Kirkus Reviews 

“As in her past books, Kasza here delivers a valuable lesson cunningly and effectively.” –Publishers Weekly


“A good choice both for story times and for beginning readers.” —School Library Journal
