The Big Cuddle<br />

The tiger suffers from the Great Uncuddliness: He is always grumpy. When the other animals see<br />

him from the corner, they search for a hide. Because when he catches them, he loudly tells them<br />

everything he doesn't like!<br />

Though one day there's a knock at his door. A cuddle toy is waiting behind to move in and roll<br />

around the tiger’s place as much as he likes. Unaffected the cuddly toy gives lessons in friendliness,<br />

empathy, and politeness. And the tiger is supposed to practice all that too! Can he resist the big<br />

cuddly toy?<br />

»Moreover, I have an<br />

allergy to niceness<br />

and an intolerance<br />

to politeness! All my<br />

stripes fall off then! And<br />

all my teeth as well.<br />

Look, this one is already<br />

wobbling!«<br />
