The Loudest Roar

Submitted by Ms. Jill!
The Loudest Roar by Thomas Taylor. Clovis is a tiny young tiger with a very loud roar, and he’s proud of it! So proud, in fact, that he wants all the other animals in the jungle to know that he’s the “fiercest, most roaringest tiger in the whole wide world.” Clovis spends his time sneaking up on other creatures so that he can jump out and scare them with his loud ROAR!!!! He chases the parrots from their fruit tree, startles the wildebeest out of their swamp, and even sends the mighty elephants stampeding across the plains. It’s all a lot of fun for a little tiger, but the other animals are getting fed up. Finally, the monkey hatches a plan, and everyone in the jungle helps to teach Clovis a lesson he won’t soon forget. But can the fiercest, most roaringest tiger really change his ways? Your young tigers will love to roar out loud along with Clovis in this simple story that’s just right for preschoolers. Thomas Taylor’s lush full-spread illustrations perfectly capture Clovis’ sneaky ways and the startled animals’ priceless expressions. This is a terrific read-aloud for groups, or just to enjoy with your own little tiger. See this book listed in our catalog
