First published in 2002, the book retells the Aboriginal story of how the Tasmanian tiger got its stripes.

Tiger Tale is illustrated using torn paper collage that gives the book a folkloric style.

As Tiger goes on his way he notices a bushfire approaching and goes back to the river to summon the other animals, however all three, Bunyip, Kanga and Great Bird all desert him.

Tiger Tale is in its second printing and has been sold throughout Australia through Australian Geographic stores.
