What is Little Rex about?
Rex dreams of being the biggest, scariest dinosaur around, but everyone calls him 'Little Rex.' One day, while looking after his parents' eggs, they begin to hatch. To his surprise, the tiny hatchlings see him as a giant, scary dinosaur! Rex realises that being big isn't just about size—it's about caring for those smaller than you. This heartwarming tale teaches children about self-acceptance and the joys of becoming a big brother.
