Channel 4 Releases Trailer For 'The Tiger Who Came To Tea' ". TVWise. 2019-12-05 . Retrieved 2020-02-24. This one is particularly nostalgic for me, as it is the story I used to calm down a two year old who had fallen off the top bunk, thus needing an x-ray to see if any bones were broken. A normal examination was impossible as she started to scream every time the doctor came near her, so there we were, me and a doctor, both in lead aprons, trying to hold down a wriggling screeching refusenik so that her nice photo would come out unblurred. In the end I suggested that the doctor should leave, and I would tell her a story to soothe her and they could do the x-ray when they saw fit. This was the story. Judith knows about dangerous people who come to your house and take people away. She was told as a young child that her father could be grabbed at any moment by either the Gestapo or the SS - he was in great danger. So I don’t know whether Judith did it consciously or not - I wouldn’t want to go there - but the point is he’s a jokey tiger, but he is a tiger”.

says the tiger, and he leaves by the same door as he came in, as they all wave goodbye to each other. Wallis, Lucy (26 November 2013). "The story behind The Tiger Who Came To Tea". BBC News . Retrieved 23 May 2019. Comedy actors to voice The Tiger Who Came To Tea". British Comedy Guide. 2019-07-29 . Retrieved 2020-02-24. The story starts with a ring at the door, interrupting Sophie and her mummy when they are having their afternoon tea in their kitchen. Who could it be, they wonder. Sophie opens the door and a tiger peeps around the edge of the door frame. He is very polite, and asks if he may join them. “Of course, come in” Sophie’s mummy says. So that is exactly what they do, even though it has got dark and all the street lights are on. (If you look carefully you can even see a stripy cat on the pavement!) They have a lovely meal of sausages, and chips, and ice cream. The next day Sophie and her mummy go out to buy some more food, and they make sure they buy a big tin of Tiger Food.But a tiger is a very big animal, with a simply enormous appetite. Although he sits very nicely at the kitchen table, and waits politely to be offered the sandwiches, the cakes, the buns and then the biscuits, each time he scoffs the lot! And when he is offered a cup of tea, he not only drinks it all, but also all the milk in the milk jug. Then he looks round to see what else he can find.

Invite children to talk about and retell this classic children’s story using our 'The Tiger Who Came to Tea' Sequencing Cards. This delightful story is written by Judith Kerr. It describes an eventful day for Sophie and her family when a tiger comes to their house for tea! The reaction of the child-reader (or auditor) is guided by the exuberant joy of the child in the story, Sophie, who is obviously delighted with this amazing animal that proceeds to turn their lives upside down by eating all the food in the house and drinking all there is to drink (including the single bottle of beer, this is an abstentious household apparently). It's Sophie's reaction to the tiger that is the key to the book she's fully able to enjoy the pure extravagance of the tiger's behaviour, while the representative adult, in a nice touch of realism, comes across as being a bit overwhelmed even though the tiger is polite throughout and minds its Ps and Qs (at least figuratively, I don't recall how often it actually says please and thank you as one does when invited in for tea). It is all about a little girl called Sophie, her mummy, and a tiger, all of whom have tea together. (Of course it is. What did you expect? The title told you that is exactly what it would be.) I really like this book and would highly recommend it. I hope I get to use it in the classroom when I am a teacher.Here at Twinkl, we know how time-consuming it can be to create engaging literacy resources.
