Favorite Scene From When You Trap a Tiger by Tae Keller
My favorite scene in the book is when Lily breaks into the library to have the tiger help her and her sister. Lily remembers that it doesn't seem to rain around the tiger, and since Sam is afraid to drive in the rain, Lily knows the tiger could help them get to the hospital safely. This is my favorite part because I could really imagine it, and also because it is the moment that Sam starts to believe Lily and all that she sees.
