Meet T, a towering Tyrannosaurus rex with HUGE feet and an even bigger heart. Hatched millions of years after dinosaurs disappeared, T feels pretty lonely until he's adopted by a family of chickens, his closest living relatives!
Peck, his new little brother, thinks T is a great addition to the family. Chick, his new sister, isn't convinced. After all, T doesn't quite fit in. At home, he breaks the playground slide and has trouble fitting in his bunk bed. At school, he knocks things over with his tail and has to sit in the very back because none of the desks are big enough for him. But one day, something special happens and this unlikely family learns that even if you don't look the same, love is what makes a family.
Funny and heartwarming, this story about belonging and friendship shows that family is about being there for each other, no matter what!
