About the book....
Can Tiny Tiny Rhino have a fun day?
Or will all of his whining get in the way?
If you've ever been worried to try something new,
then Whiny Whiny Rhino is the book for you!
From creative team McBoop, comes the story of the whiny rhino with the big head and the even bigger imagination.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Oh Tiny Tiny Rhino, I can't help but feel bad for you! Those bully brothers of yours tell you how to feel, how to act, and how you'll react. You put a brave face on in their presence but they get inside your head tainting your day and turning what should have been playtime into ....alone time. *sigh* By book's end, I was thrilled to see you figure out that it's really up to you what you do and say. It's your life, your time, YOUR CHOICE. If you want to sit inside and whine, you can. If you want to get out there and have a ball, you can. There is nothing stopping you but yourself and whomever you let have control over you...and really, that's not something a smart little rhino like yourself would do.
In the end, the book combines a great story with vivid illustrations making it a perfect fit for all ages...and we walk away wiser from our lessons learned. Aside from those already mentioned, we learn how to handle bullies, that taking chances can be worth the payoff, and that it matters not how little we are, we can have BIG FUN.
