Are you bored with being so proper?
Do you want to have more fun?
Mr. Tiger knows just how you feel.
So he decides to go wild.
But does he go too far?
Caldecott Honor artist Peter Brown’s engaging story and expressive artwork
lets readers know there’s a time and place for everything—even going wild.
★ “There’s a lot to go wild for in this picture-book celebration of individuality and self-expression.
Hooray for Mr. Tiger and his wild ways!”—Kirkus Reviews, starred review
★ “This ‘it’s okay to be different’ story stands out from other picture books on the topic thanks to Brown’s
delightfully clever illustrations and masterful compositions.” —School Library Journal, starred review
★ “Readers who prefer the view from underneath the dinner table will find a kindred soul in Brown’s
brightly burning character who knows that the wilderness is always waiting, should the need arise.”
—Publishers Weekly, starred review
★ “With its skewed humor and untamed spirit this joyous exploration of quasi-reverse anthropomorphism
will delight listeners again and again.”—Booklist, starred review
★ “This is a book made for storytime . . . . The happy ending, almost a reverse of Where the Wild
Things Are, includes everyone discovering the fun of being at least a little bit wild.”
—Horn Book, starred review

and use tape to affix a craft stick, unsharpened pencil, or chopstick to the back of each of the
Mr. Tiger figures. You can do the same with the backdrops, or insert the rectangles in slits
along the bottom of each to make them stand on your stage. Create a puppet show of Mr. Tiger’s
transformation from proper to wild, or create your own adventures!

Matching Game

INSTRUCTIONS: Shuffle
the cards. Place the cards
face-down on a table or

in any way you want. Go
wild! Players take turns

don’t match, the player
replaces the cards,
face-down, where they
came from, and the next
player takes his/her turn.

the player keeps the pair
of cards, and gets to
choose two more cards.
The player with the
most cards at the end
of the game wins!
