“Do you have a curious cat in your family?
Have you ever wondered what it gets up to at night?
Ben’s cat Tigger is a superhero, specifically Batman 😂 (in our family discussions).
He patrols the garden, acknowledges the other creatures and fights off the bad guy. This ‘save the night’ children’s story is beautifully illustrated and as with all of Tricia Legg’s work, there is fun and learning on every page. We love the onomatopoeia connected to the beautiful pictures and tried to add some more descriptive words of our own.” Paula Sharp
