Does your husband not realise they had to go out cos the tiger ate all the food drunk all the water and all daddys beer :laughing:

[ajs]

mum drank all of dad's beer and for sophie's sake dad took them out rather than let her starve.
he says the mother was such a bad housewife that she couldn't be bothered to go shopping for the familyand obviously suffered form alcohol dependence and was a chronic fantasist too and insisted on making up stories about where all of the food had gone.

I wont be able to read the story now without laughing, your hubbys slant on it is funny:)

This was my favourite book growing up!.......that must make it really old!!!!!

I have an original copy of this book from the 70s which was mine as a child, I originally used it when I started minding but it is so popular with the children that I've bought a new hardbacked copy as the original was getting a little worn.
