Cat Teaches Tiger a Lesson (Chinese-English Edition): A Classic Chinese Fairy Tale Picture Book

Illustrated Classic Chinese Tales: Fairy Tales — Tiger Learns Everything from Cat, Then Tries to Eat His Teacher, But Cat Kept One Skill in Reserve — Bilingual, Pinyin, Full-Colour Illustrations
Tiger hears that Cat is a skillful hunter and brings presents to become his student. Cat teaches Tiger everything—how to stalk, how to pounce, how to fight. But once Tiger believes he has learned it all, he turns on his teacher and wants to eat him. Cat runs, and Tiger almost catches him—until Cat leaps into a tree. Climbing was the one skill Cat had deliberately held back. This classic Chinese tale introduces young readers to the idea that not everyone who learns from you will treat you well, and that it is wise to keep something in reserve. This bilingual picture book features full-colour illustrations, English text translated by Liu Jun and Mark Ray, and Chinese text with pinyin at the back. It is designed for parents reading with children, and for young learners of either language who want a simple, memorable story with a clear lesson.

But the clever cat has kept one crucial technique a secret—one that will save his life .
