“Tiger-Tiger, Is It True?” is a story about a little tiger who thinks that his whole world is falling apart: his parents don’t love him, his friends have abandoned him, and life is unfair. But a wise turtle asks him four questions, and everything changes.
He realizes that all his problems are not caused by things, but by his “thoughts” about things; and that when he questions his thoughts, life becomes wonderful again. This is a heartwarming story with a powerful message that can transform the lives of even very young children. Byron Katie’s wisdom-filled words and Hans Wilhelm’s vivid, magical illustrations combine to make a book that will become one of the classics of children’s literature.

Wonderful children’s book – and for adults, too! by A Henderson
Customers Rating:
The message here is that we choose how we want to feel – a very good lesson for anyone, not just children. No one is angry, sad, happy, depressed, excited, anxious – without his or her permission. A profound message with a light-hearted delivery – what could be better?
Great book! by Destiny Champion (CA)

I’ve been using Byron Katie’s work for a couple of years now. I use it for myself and my clients (I’m a Marriage and Family Therapist). This book allows me to use it with children as well. It’s well written and the pictures are captivating. My 6 year old son really enjoyed it and asked to have it read to him again the next night.
Now that he understands the concept of questioning his thoughts I can talk to him about it when he comes home upset from school or a play date. Even at this young age he is learning that suffering is a choice and that using “inquiry” can set him free from the thoughts that are causing his suffering.
Not just for kids! by Grandmom (PA)

This is a wonderful little gem. I got it for my youngest grandchild and after reading it I had to get one for all of them -even the oldest. It is a wonderful story about a little tiger who feels his world is falling apart. When a wise owl asks him 4 simple questions he realizes his thoughts cause his problems. I think it is great book that even adults will find very valuable.
