A magnificently illustrated Chinese folklore tale about a tigress, a seer, a King, and the prince, who must leave his family and learn the ways of the tigers so that the war between man and animal can end.

Deep in the Great Forest, a tigress is mourning the death of her tiger babies who have been killed by hunters. Seeking revenge, she attacks the villages, destroying houses and prompting the King to gather his army together. But a seer named Lao Lao warns the King that if he angers the tigress further she will destroy the kingdom. Lao Lao counsels the King to give his own son to the tigress and promises that no harm will come to the prince. The next morning, the king brings the boy prince to the edge of the Great Forest and tells him, "Now you must go on alone." To end the war between man and animal, the prince must forget his human ways and begin to learn what tigers know. The Tiger Prince was inspired by "The Tigress," a late Shang dynasty bronze vessel in the Cernuschi Museum in Paris depicting a scene from the Chinese folktale of a baby raised by a tigress.

Scarlet Vacaru a dat nota:

O frumoasa poveste din China indepartata, despre relatia ancestrala dintre un animal salbatic si un pui de om. O mama tigru are grija de un pui de om pe fondul pierderii propriului pui. Gasim aceeasi idee aproape de noi in Europa, in povestea lui Romulus si Remus, crescuti si hraniti de o lupoaica. Situatie care probabil este comuna multor culturi, in care relatia dintre un om si un animal salbatic depaseste granita vanatorii si a supravietuirii dominante, ci se reface cercul umanitatii in care animalul salbatic si omul pot trai alaturi dar pe baza unor conditii clare, nu oricum. Nici povestea nu promoveaza ideea de imblanzire a salbaticiei, ci salbaticia protezeaja viata, cu regulile ei de viata, nu cu regulile oamenilor.
