Roar! Roar! Roar! The tiger is moving very slowly in the long green grass. The tiger has black and orange striped fur, razor sharp teeth and bright round eyes. The tiger lives in the jungle next to Jack's house.

On a rainy day, Jack was playing outside and it felt like something or someone was watching him. Jack looked around and saw the tiger sitting on a tree branch in the distance. Jack quietly walked back inside his house and asked his Mum for a camera to take a photo of the tiger. By the time, Jack walked back outside, the tiger had gone.

The next day, Jack was playing and saw the tiger on the branch again. Jack, again, walked into the house to fetch the camera but by the time Jack had returned, the tiger had gone.

On the third day, Jack was hoping to take a photo of the tiger so he asked his Mum if he could take the camera out with him whilst he played. Jack waited and waited but the tiger didn't show up.

Jack never saw the tiger again.
