An oversized dinosaur named Dinky helps two siblings discover that a person’s heart matters more than their appearance in this delightful picture book, perfect for fans of Clifford the Big Red Dog and Dragons Love Tacos.

Twin siblings have their heart set on adopting a dinosaur. But not just any dinosaur—they want a pocket-sized tinysaur! They find the perfect one and name her Dinky. Life with Dinky is lots of fun… until one day when the twins start to notice that Dinky is growing.

When Dinky’s new size causes trouble at their birthday party, the twins get angry and Dinky runs away. But it isn’t long until the twins miss their beloved pet. Can they find Dinky and bring her back home?
