A small kitten loses her way after chasing a butterfly from the alley she lives in. She finds herself at the zoo in an area labeled "Big Cat Section." The small kitten decides to enter to see if she can find a new home.

In the zoo, the kitten comes across a variety of cats: tigers, jaguars, pumas, and other species of felines. She asks each of the big cats if she can live with them, and each time the cat refers her to another cat who may be able to help her. After every other cat refuses her request, the kitten finds herself back at the tiger, who takes pity and lets her sleep with her.

The next morning, a little girl notices the "tiniest tiger" sleeping in the tiger habitat and wants to take her home.

THE TINIEST TIGER is the work of Joanne L. McGonagle, who is donating a portion of the proceeds from the sale of the book to conservation projects aimed at big cats throughout the world.

Each time the kitten meets a new cat, key information about the cat is nearby on a sign. The information included is about the cat's size, life span, litter size, and their status on the endangered species list.

The author of THE TINIEST TIGER seeks to teach as well as entertain young readers with this fun tale.
