What happens when husband and wife swap jobs? Maybe doing the housework and looking after the baby isn't so easy after all! See how the man gets on in this funny retelling of the traditional Eastern European tale.

Augustus the tiger was sad. He had lost his smile. So he did a huge tigery stretch, and set off to find it. In this book, author and illustrator Catherine Rayner celebrates the beauty of the world and the simple happiness it brings us when we open our eyes to it.


In Farsi and English.
