Description: Tiny makes a giant discovery in his first picture book. Tiny, the lovable giant dog, is starring in his very first picture book! Tiny and Eliot are visiting Uncle John’s farm, and they plan to help with chores. But Uncle John’s cat and her new kittens are missing, so Eliot and Tiny decide to find them. Their hunt takes them all around the farm, and no one is more surprised than Tiny when he discovers the hiding cats. With a very simple text and playful illustrations, this picture book is a perfect introduction to Tiny.
Review from SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNAL: “In their latest adventure, Tiny, a barn-size dog, and his boy help Uncle John find his lost kittens. With a nose as big as a small boy's head, the pup is well suited for the job, and he does not disappoint. This easy reader uses simple text to tell a predictable, uncomplicated story that will appeal to children. Illustrations are cartoonlike and cheery, providing visual clues for the more difficult vocabulary ("hayloft," "horseshoe," "grasshopper"). Tiny dominates the spreads with his exaggerated proportions and is sure to appeal to kids' fascination with friendly giants.
