Description
In the newest picture book in the bestselling Tiny T. Rex series, lovable friends Tiny and Pointy challenge themselves when they enter the school talent show.
Kids love dinosaurs—and dinosaur books! Tiny T. Rex is a dinosaur kids especially love because he's a tiny dinosaur in a big world—just like them.
Tiny and his friend Pointy really want to win their school's talent show. And they think they know just how to do it: They will become great magicians, just like their hero, The Amazing Presto. Together they work hard on their act, including the grandest trick of all: to make something disappear. But it isn't easy to become magicians, and just when they've mastered their skills, they face the even greater challenge of performing in front of an audience!

With their trademark humor and warmth, beloved duo Tiny and Pointy prove that every problem can be overcome as long as it's met with patience and understanding.
EVERYONE LOVES TINY: The first book about Tiny, Tiny T. Rex and the Impossible Hug, was an immediate bestseller from the moment it was published. All the books in the Tiny T. Rex series have been indie bookstore bestsellers, Amazon top titles, and Amazon best books.
GREAT MESSAGE: Tiny and Pointy persist in pursuing their dream despite obstacles, and despite doubts about being good enough. This is a positive book that will get kids excited about trying new things.
GREAT VALUES: Every Tiny book features Tiny solving common childhood challenges with love, a positive attitude, and friendship.

          January 15, 2023
          Tiny T. Rex and Pointy the stegosaurus overcome their fears and inexperience to participate in the talent show. Inspired by the Amazing Presto, enthusiastic Tiny and apprehensive Pointy decide to do a magic act. They don top hats and wield wands, select their magic word, and enlist the help of their special assistant, Bob the teddy bear. At first, the pair expect the magic to just happen, but after careful planning and creative thinking, they find a way to make their disappearing trick work. Nervous Pointy pulls out of the performance at the last minute but in the end finds the courage to appear on stage--as Tiny puts it, "Sometimes the grandest ta-da is not making something disappear. It is when someone who disappeared bravely comes back." Stutzman's story touches on hard work and preparation, feelings of anxiety, and perseverance. Tiny does the majority of the narration with brief interjections from Pointy. As a result, aside from facial expressions, readers mostly learn how Pointy feels through Tiny. Because the story never shows Pointy working through fears or uncertainties, some may find the resolution a bit too easily wrapped up. Still, the two are a charming pair. Fleck's illustrations feature sweet dinos with Tiny's recognizable toothy grin, bright colors, and a cute supporting cast of characters. (This book was reviewed digitally.) A muddy message about stick-to-itiveness salvaged by a winsome dino duo. (Picture book. 4-6)
