Deep in the forest, under a big leaf, sat a speckled egg. Someone little was waiting inside...
Out pops Rexington - wet, wobbly, and brand new to the world. His first step ends in a tumble. His first roar comes out as a squeak. But with a little help from Mama, and a lot of help from his friends, Rexington is about to discover what growing up big and strong really means.
In a sunny clearing he meets Tuck the triceratops, Stevie the stegosaurus with her sparkly plates, and Skye, a pink pterodactyl who swoops in looking for one more friend. Together they stack pinecones, build a leafy fort, shelter from the rain telling silly stories, and follow a hidden path to a sparkling waterfall.
And when one of them goes missing, Rexington learns that being brave isn't about being the biggest - it's about showing up for the people you love.
A gentle, warmly illustrated bedtime story for children aged 3 to 6, about friendship, kindness, sharing, and finding the strength you already have.
