That's When I Kissed the Tiger
language
( July 28, 2014)
Twelve-year-old Freddie is ticked off at his parents for making him fly out to visit Hicksville relatives on a farm where nothing ever happens. That’s before cousin Kristin begs him to help her find out why her Great Pyrenees dog, usually so calm and gentle, now disappears each night and comes home agitated and all screwed up.
When the kids sneak out and follow the dog they discover a caged tiger, illegally held by a drunken farmland neighbor. So now comes the problem: How can they rescue the tiger and get him shipped to a shelter without any of the adults catching on?
The kids are about to pull off this daunting maneuver when something even worse puts up a roadblock: Can they salvage this mission without putting their lives—and the tiger’s!—in jeopardy? And finally, can these two, who deserve black belts in the art of telling lies, come up with a big enough whopper to keep them from getting grounded for life?
