Tiny T. Rex and the Impossible Hug by Jonathan Stutzman & Jay Fleck

Tiny T. Rex has a big heart but he has very small arms. This isn’t usually a problem, until one day Tiny sees that his friend Pointy is feeling sad and needs some cheering up. Tiny knows that the best thing to do is to give his friend a great big hug, but his teensy little arms won’t let him!

Determined to find a solution to his hugging problem, Tiny turns to his family for advice. Each of them offers up some wisdom, but nothing seems quite right until he speaks to his brother and sister. They tell him that if he wants to do something which everyone believes is impossible then he needs a plan and he needs to practise, practise, practise.

Tilly & Tank by Jay Fleck

Tilly & TankA tank isn’t an obvious choice for a character in a children’s book and before reading this I have to admit I was sceptical. However Tilly & Tank carries a lovely message about friendship and since we received it a few days ago it has become a firm favourite.

Tilly is a blue elephant who one day spots a little green tank which looks just like her. She approaches it hoping to make friends. Tank is on duty, minding his own business, when he sees what he thinks is a little blue tank coming towards him. He presumes it is an enemy.

Their confusion causes problems but can they look beyond their differences and become friends? #makepeacenotwar
