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. “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 Kōichi “Tiger” Tateishi worked in a variety of media including painting, comic books, illustrated books, sculpture and ceramics during his prolific career. He died in 1998 at only 56 years of age.
