Description
Deep in the mossy bush lives Tiny, a small tuatara with a very big imagination. Tiny dreams of becoming a mighty warrior of the forest. Armed with a stick, toothy grin, and plenty of enthusiasm, he sets off on a series of adventures through the bush.
But the bush has other ideas and Tiny’s journey doesn’t always quite go as he imagined.
With every trip, tumble, and unexpected turn, Tiny discovers something important: being brave doesn’t always mean getting it right the first time; it’s about getting back up.
Full of humour, heart, and beloved native wildlife, Tiny Spiny is a playful celebration of courage, curiosity, and the wild imagination that lives inside every child.
