Advantages: A superb balm for aches and pains Disadvantages: its a bit smelly!!
Tiger Balm was the brainchild of a Chinese Herbalist many years ago. The balm was originally formulated for the Chinese Emperors to use.
After the herbalists death one of his sons travelled the East accompanied by a tiger (A symbol of strength and vitality in the East) selling the balm wherever he could.
In the 1920`s his two sons established a company base in Singapore to manufacture the Tiger Balm and the product is widely used throughout the world nowadays.

Tiger isnt a real tiger he is just a tinylittle harmless kitten but he doesnt want to be a kitten, he dreams of being a great big ferocious tiger, with great big paws and great big claws, that roars very loudly.
Tiger wants to be a tiger that much he pretends he is when he is playing, he doesnt want to play with wool like other kittens do he wants to stalk prey silently and jump roaring like a real tiger.

This book is fun, there are lots of funny noises in this book for you and your child to repeat, some rhyming pieces, the pictures are brilliant and the story is basic ...
Advantages: Tasty, lovely aroma, soft whit bread with a nutty crust, good value Disadvantages: Limited shelf life
I absolutely adore Tiger bread but reading other reviews I guess I may be in the minority. Most supermarkets do some sort of Tiger bread these days and for me it is a nice little twist on a white, bread loaf. We usually buy our Tiger Bread from Asda and I love it. I presume it is called tiger bread becuse the crust is patterened in such a way that it resembles tiger stripes, but I could be wrong. In fact I probably am. In light of this I have just had a look on Wikepedia and this is what it has to say about tiger bread:-
'Tiger bread is made with sesame oil and with a pattern baked into the top made by painting rice paste onto the surface prior to baking. The paste dries and cracks during the baking process, creating a two-colour effect similar to a tiger; hence the name. The rice paste crust also gives the bread a distinctive flavour ...

CMJ (12/13/99, pp.21-2) - "...attacks with snarling psychobilly as its main weapon....the tracks maintain a sinister edge and a fascination with things that go bump in the night."
