The Tiger Rising by Kate DiCamillo





Some things- like memories, and heartache, and tigers- can't be locked up forever.....


It's a misty, foggy morning in Florida woods and young Rob Horton has nothing to do. He has to stay home all cuz of a skin rash, and he can't stand the thought of staying in a motel. So he takes a walk in the woods, thinking about that new girl at school, Sistine Bailey, her fights and anger. And that's when he sees a tiger, all alive, locked up in a cage..........

A poignant story of loss and redemption. It's not easy losing your mother, and nor is it easy to save a beautiful beast.......<3 this book!!
