This is a story all about a little boy who wants to meet the “scariest creatures in the world”, and asks his mum where they are to be found.
“Hmm” said his mum, “let me see now!” And she packed him a rucksack with a drink, a couple of oranges and a pair of scissors (“because scissors always come in handy”) and told him to go to the bottom of the garden and wait. Just wait. And if he’s quiet enough, “maybe then you’ll get to see a bear!”
Well, he doesn’t just get to meet a bear, he meets a tiger too! What the boy learns from meeting the scariest creatures in the world helps him with people (especially the scary ones) for the rest of his life.
