“But the tiger didn’t just take one sandwich.”
Judith Kerr’s famous teatime visitor
First published in 1968, The Tiger Who Came to Tea tells the story of Sophie and her quite extraordinary visitor, who arrives at the kitchen door and proceeds to devour sandwiches, buns, and tea straight from the pot! Judith Kerr’s delightful picture book has remained a favourite for generations, loved for its cheerful absurdity, bold colourscapes and wonderfully memorable tiger.
From picture book to bronze
Robert James Workshop unveiled The Tiger Who Came to Tea at RHS Chelsea Flower Show 2025 as part of its first collaboration with HarperCollins UK and Tacy Kneale, Judith Kerr’s daughter. Shaped with close attention to Kerr’s original illustrations, the finished piece carries the poise, appetite and comic charm that made the tiger such an unforgettable character.
