🎨 How to color it

Color the tiger cub golden orange with bold black stripes, the leaf bed deep jungle green, the crescent moon buttery yellow, and the little flowers pink and white. Use chunky crayons to fill the cub’s big body and the wide leaves first, then try a sharper crayon point for the small stars and leaf veins. For a nighttime surprise, shade the sky softly in pale blue around the moon while leaving a bright halo near the sleeping tiger’s face.

The story behind this coloring page

Zara’s Moonleaf Secret — Every evening, Zara raced up the starlit hill to pile the softest leaves under the lookout tree. Read the full story →

Every evening, Zara raced up the starlit hill to pile the softest leaves under the lookout tree. Swish, pat, swish—she made a bed for the night-watch beetles before anyone woke to thank her. Until one day, her paw bumped a lumpy leaf that jingled like tiny bells.

Because of that, Zara peeked underneath and found a little pouch of silver moonseeds, tucked where nobody would look. Because of that, she dashed from bush to bush, planting them along the dark path so lost travelers would find a gentle glow. “Grow fast,” she whispered. At last, with muddy paws and a happy yawn, Zara curled on the leftover leaves as the first moonseed blinked awake. If you spot the sleepy cub, can you guess which leaves hid the secret?
