With a message of patience and humour, this is the heartwarming story of how a little tiger named Leo bloomed.
Leo isn’t reading, or writing, or drawing, or even speaking, and his father is concerned. But Leo’s mother isn’t. She knows her son will do all those things, and more, when he’s ready.
“‘Are you sure Leo's a bloomer?,’ asked Leo's father. ‘Patience,’ said Leo's mother. ‘A watched bloomer doesn't bloom.’”
And sure enough, in his own time, he does.
