The Talkative Tiger Quotes

“But the man with the shiny shoes was very brave,” continued Zoe. “He told the men they couldn’t have the land and he made them go away.” Over in the sea otters’ enclosure the sound of splashing quietened, and Zoe could see Nina, Alex and Sasha floating on their backs in the moonlight. Teddy yawned and gave a quiet little growl. “The tigers were so happy that the man with the shiny shoes had saved them they made him their king,” said Zoe. She couldn’t help grinning as she thought of Mr Pinch being king of the tigers. “They gave him a shiny golden crown and a long velvet cloak. And they called him King Pinch.” Zoe waited for Teddy to tell her some more of his thoughts, but the little tiger was silent. She looked over to his enclosure and saw him curled in a ball, fast asleep! Zoe tiptoed over to Bertie’s enclosure. The little elephant was fast asleep too. And so were the monkeys, and the sea otters.”
