Ravi’s roar is a part of Tom Percival’s Big bright feelings book series.

Ravi is the youngest of his three siblings, and he has a pet dog named biscuit. He never minded being the smallest in his family, Until one day, his short arms can’t reach the monkey bars, he can’t find anyone during hide-and-seek, and he’s too little to ride the big slide. Ravi went so mad, and so furious that he can’t control his temper anymore and he becomes a ferocious, roaring TIGER! At first, it seems fun as everyone begins to listen to him but gradually Ravi is left feeling empty. Is this the best way to be when things get too much?

Most of the time, Ravi enjoyed being small

Ravi was frustrated when he couldn't find anyone during the hide and seek play — Ravi was frustrated when he couldn’t find anyone during the hide and seek play

Ravi felt the peak of anger when he didn't get any ice cream as he ran slowly — Ravi felt the peak of anger when he didn’t get any ice cream as he ran slowly

Ravi became as ferocious as a tiger and things started to work as his way.

Ravi utilised this opportunity and started to use this towards others and they were not happy at all.

Ravi is left all alone for being a ferocious tiger

He apologized to everyone and that was the last time he was a ferocious tiger — He apologised to everyone and that was the last time he was a ferocious tiger

Another brilliant book by Tom Percival and illustrations are mind-blowing. The metaphor of anger and tiger is brilliant and a child can relate to them easily.

Is it ok to be ferocious to voice out our feelings? Is it ok to be harsh when we are overwhelmed? Is it ok to push others to fight for what we wanted? is it ok to be angry when things don’t turn our way? ask these questions while reading this story and we can have many surprise answers.

A book for all children who are trying to control their temper and who are dealing to control their anger. A great book to add to your home library.
