A Tiger in the Land of Dreams is the first English-language edition of a legendary picture book from 1984. Tiger Tateishi, well-known in the worlds of art and comics, takes us on a journey through a surreal land with Torakichi, a constantly-morphing green tiger. The artist saw this strange tiger as a combination of an animal and a plant. Suitable for all ages, but this is the type of book you buy for the dreamy artwork.

"It may be time for you to take a trip to a strange land above the clouds where the tigers are green with blue stripes. It’s calming and odd and makes you feel like you have entered a dream. And, actually, you have entered the dream of Torakichi the Tiger. Torakichi oozes out of his translucent cube (of ice?), splashes in a pond, then transforms into a daruma-san, a fearsome looking god of luck without eyelids or limbs. There are Dali-esque adventures with Torakichi’s tail, and Escher-like stairs and mazes to wonder at."--Stephanie Tournas, Youth Services Book Review

“There’s no escaping the dream as long as this book is open.”--Yukiko Hiromatsu, author of Japanese Picturebooks: 100 Years, 100 Illustrators, 100 Books
