The Tiger Rising
This is a...

This is a really good book about a boy who lives with his dad in Florida at a motel.  Wandering in the woods behind the motel, he happens to find a beautiful caged tiger.  This book is one of the best I've ever read, but it is short and sort of sad.  READ IT!!!

Yes, I agree. This is a sort of short and sad book, but it's still fun and a VERY good read. Kate Dicamillo is an amazing author. All of her books are kind of sad, but they're happy, too, so they even out.:)
