But will Dad ever look up from his phone?英國繪本中的老虎，經常都會讓人聯想到《來喝下午茶的老虎》這本經典的繪本，而這些老虎也都很紳士，不是動物園中兇猛的老虎。There's a Tiger on the Train 是在 Never Tickle a Tiger (別搔老虎的癢)後另一本令人眼睛一亮的老虎繪本。小男孩一家搭乘火車要前往海邊，戴著大禮帽的老虎也是乘客之一，他坐在小男孩旁邊，以老虎的方式跟小男孩說「早安」，然後專注地讀著他從帽子裡拿出來的漫畫。小男孩的爸爸一直在滑手機，沒有發現漫畫後面的是一隻老虎。然後鱷魚跟和河馬也上車了，大家都要去海邊玩。小男孩的爸爸還是專心的看著他的手機.....這是一本圖畫比文字更有趣的繪本，非常適合親子共讀，大人自己讀也很有意思。插畫家Rebecca Cobb是很受歡迎的插畫家，作品向來溫暖又有童心。本書作者Maries
