Synopsis
Baby Thomas watches his older sister Leanne and her friends, Natalie and Sam, as they play and argue, feeling left out because he's so small. The big kids decide to help Thomas grow by stretching him, but their plan doesn't work. Luckily, Thomas's dad arrives, lifts him high on his shoulders, and suddenly, Thomas is taller than everyone else. The other children look up at him, realising that being big isn't just about size.
