This story is part of the Reading Champion series, which is carefully designed to connect with books and encourage independent reading skills, developed by Dr. Sue Bodman and Glen Franklin from the UCL Institute of Education (IOE).

In this traditional fairy tale from India, a small tiger cub is sent to the village to fetch fire. However, the tiger cub soon gets distracted and forgets its task.

The Reading Champion series offers independent reading books for children to practice and develop their emerging reading skills. The engaging stories are accompanied by captivating illustrations and a reading activity. Each book has been carefully graded to match a child's reading ability, fostering a love of reading.

This simplified version of the traditional fairy tale is suitable for children aged 5-7 years or for those reading at the orange reading level.
