There's a Tiger on the Train (平裝本)(英國版)(2025 Carnegie Medal for Illustration Nominated)

On an extraordinary journey to the sea, a tiger boards the train, along with a jungle of other animals - all without dad even looking up from his phone! From debut author, Mariesa Dulak, and award-winner Rebecca Cobb, illustrator of The Everywhere Bear.

"You'll never guess what happened
On our trip down to the sea . . .
A Tiger in a top hat
Came and sat right next to me."

Off to the seaside we go on a rather extraordinary train journey.

A boy and his dad board the train and so does...a tiger? And a family of hippos, and a band of crocs, and a mum with her piglets, and a pug in a boa - or two! But will Dad ever look up from his phone?

英國繪本中的老虎，經常都會讓人聯想到《來喝下午茶的老虎》這本經典的繪本，而這些老虎也都很紳士，不是動物園中兇猛的老虎。There's a Tiger on the Train 是在 Never Tickle a Tiger (別搔老虎的癢)後另一本令人眼睛一亮的老虎繪本。

小男孩一家搭乘火車要前往海邊，戴著大禮帽的老虎也是乘客之一，他坐在小男孩旁邊，以老虎的方式跟小男孩說「早安」，然後專注地讀著他從帽子裡拿出來的漫畫。小男孩的爸爸一直在滑手機，沒有發現漫畫後面的是一隻老虎。然後鱷魚跟和河馬也上車了，大家都要去海邊玩。小男孩的爸爸還是專心的看著他的手機.....

這是一本圖畫比文字更有趣的繪本，非常適合親子共讀，大人自己讀也很有意思。插畫家Rebecca Cobb是很受歡迎的插畫家，作品向來溫暖又有童心。本書作者Mariesa Dulak的初試啼聲之作，能讓Faber出版，讓人期待她後續的作品。
