 unacceptable stereotypical functionalist nonsense November 8, 2008
Mrs. Philippa Griffin (England)
1 out of 16 found this review helpful
As a pre-school teacher I urge you never to read this book in your setting again. It perpetuates the belief that men go to work and women stay at home to shop and cook and childcare. Reading this book to children perpetuates a stereotypical outdated image of both family life and individual roles within a family based on gender, and reading it to children sends powerful messages to them about what roles they will be expected to fulfill later in life. Rip it up and throw it away lest you construct children of tomorrow subject to the same limitations based on gender that we are today. Think hard about how you use language in your setting to construct the norms of childhood and challenge all members of staff to be vigilant when using language and reading stories. NEVER EVER READ THIS STORY TO CHILDREN AGAIN
 Great book October 19, 2008

I remember this book from when I was younger and had to buy it for my daughter. It was as good as I remember. My daughter asked so many questions about it and really used her imagination.
A Wonderful Re-discovery September 25, 2008
K. L. Kazoglu (Bodrum, Turkey)
I recently bought this for my daughter after spotting it in Marks and Spencers. I earned a few strange looks with my mini squeal of delight, but nevermind! I had completely forgotton about this book until seeing it again, and the memories flooded back as I read the story to my daugher. The simple story will delight any child, but for me, the drawings made the book. A must!!
Delight to my grandchildren September 25, 2008
BeeReader (Merseyside)
I have read this book to my 3 grandchildren time and again and still they are not tired of it - aged 5yrs and 2yrs - the 5year old having heard it since he was 2yrs 'pretends' not to be listening as his brother and cousin have it read to them but he's definitely paying attention!!
The ridiculousness (if that is a word) of the story is lovable and causes many smiles and OH'S - for some reason the scene of mess left behind always brings an Ooh and Ahh as Mummy has to clean up. The favourite picture is tiger pouring the tea down him from the pot!
a great tradition yet quirky book July 7, 2008
Ms. A. M. Hawkins (Buckinghamshire, UK)
my two sons aged 3 and a half and aged 15 months both sit in awe of this book! there is a traditional feel with the mummy making this fantasic tea which she is happy to share with this stranger at the door - a tiger! then there is the crazy element that you would let a tiger into your house - the tiger never roars at all and amazingly my very vocal boys never roar when they see him in this book as he is a friendly tiger.
this book is simply great, a must have for parents and children.
