When a young boy is left in the care of his teen sister, all he wants
her to do is read his book about tigers with him. But she’s got her ear-buds
in, groovin’ in her own world, and doesn’t want to take the time to read with
him. After all she’s only supposed to make his lunch. But when she puts his bowl of alphabet soup
in front of him, he suddenly spies a tiger in his soup! The tiger steams and swirls out of his bowl
and his ordinary lunch quickly becomes a fight for his life (and lunch). His battle with the tiger draws his sister
help as spoons drop and soup gets cold.
Will this play for attention get him the book time he’s seeking with his
sister? For the kids whose imagination roars for recognition, “Tiger in My
Soup” is the recipe for required reading.
