In this adorable picture book, Nalah is a rambunctious little girl who lives so intensely in her own imagination that grownups view her as a troublemaker. Things come to head when—in addition to all of the other exotic animals Nalah has placed in the house—a pink tiger "follows" her home from the zoo, and creates havoc.
Here are some of the great things people have been saying about Nalah and the Pink Tiger:
"… A great book for kids, and one that parents will enjoy reading more than once as well." — Open Hands Blog
