On an extraordinary journey to the sea, a tiger boards the train, along with a jungle of other animals - all without Dad even looking up from his phone! From debut author, Mariesa Dulak, and award-winner Rebecca Cobb, illustrator of The Everywhere Bear. You'll never guess what happened On our trip down to the sea . . . A tiger in a top hat Came and sat right next to me! Off to the seaside they go on a rather . . . EXTRAORDINARY train journey. But will Dad ever look up from his phone? A boy and his dad board the train. Dad is stuck into his phone and misses the fact that a tiger boards the train too . . . and so does a family of hippos, and a band of crocs, and a mum with her piglets, and a pug in a boa - or two . . . On the way to the seaside pandemonium ensues, and then the tiger roars . . . Has he finally had enough? And what will Dad say? Will he even notice?

The GEA helped Mariesa turn her scribbles into stories - she now writes picture books about identity and family life. Mariesa is a Primary School Librarian and lives with her family in West London.Rebecca Cobb works as a picture book illustrator and writer. As well as illustrating her own books, she has also illustrated works by authors, including Julia Donaldson, Helen Dunmore, Richard Curtis, Nicola Davies and Katherine Woodfine.
