DiCamillo, K. (2001). The Tiger Rising. Cambridge,
MA: Candlewick Press.
Walking through the misty Florida woods one morning, twelve-year-old Rob
Horton is stunned to encounter a tiger — a real-life, very large tiger — pacing
back and forth in a cage. What’s more, on the same extraordinary day, he meets
Sistine Bailey, a girl who shows her feelings as readily as Rob hides his. As
they learn to trust each other, and ultimately, to be friends, Rob and Sistine
prove that some things — like memories, and heartache, and tigers — can’t be
locked up forever.
