Tiger and Turtle

32 pp. | Roaring Brook/Porter | April, 2010 | Trade ISBN 978-1-59643-416-5 $17.99
(2) K-3 Told in a voice that keeps the telling intimate, Rumford's original story describes how an argument over a flower results in an unlikely friendship. Tiger and Turtle are illustrated with only a few broad brushstrokes; intricately patterned backgrounds, inspired by Indian and Pakistani decorations, pair well with the subjects, the orange-toned pages a vivid accent for the green turtle and yellow tiger.
