Summary: "Bennie and the Tiger" by Anonymous is a children's story written in the late 19th century. The book centers around a young English boy named Bennie, who, while napping in his Indian home, encounters a tiger. It explores themes of innocence, bravery, and divine protection against dangers, both physical and spiritual. The story begins with Bennie peacefully sleeping, but when his negligent nurse leaves him unattended, a tiger captures him. Rather than being frightened, Bennie exhibits remarkable courage, subtly expressing his trust in his mother and his father’s loving protection. Meanwhile, a vigilant native hears the tiger and acts swiftly, managing to rescue Bennie just in time. The narrative contrasts the physical threat posed by the tiger with the spiritual danger symbolized by Satan, imparting a moral lesson about faith and divine care. Overall, the book conveys a touching message about the innocence of childhood and the presence of loving guardianship. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
