Hatty is a tiger who doesn't like the taste of meat. He's a natural-born vegetarian and he's a great worry to his parents! But when he leaves home, Hatty is determined to make friends with the other animals who like to eat the things he does. The problem is, they think of themselves as his lunch - not his lunch partner! Hatty's good nature gets him nowhere until the animals get together and decide to test him. The tables are turned - and Hatty's hilarious confusion leads to an unexpected and happy result for them all.

In the French open in 1989, a 17-year-old, Michael Chang, worked his way through the groups to the fourth round and to playing number one-seeded and three-times champion, Ivan Lendl. As the game progressed, the outlook was bleak for Chang, who lost the first two sets. However, he won back the second two to find himself serving at 4-3 in the fifth. Then he did the unthinkable. He served underhand. Lendl was flustered, lost concentration, the crowd roared, and Chang went on to win the game. This is just one of many amazing on-court stories of bravery, skill, luck and much much more that keeps us watching our tennis stars time and again.
