Bookroo's summary

Tiny, a determined little dog, smells a big bone buried deep in the garden. Despite naysayers, he digs tirelessly, driven by his unwavering belief. With the support of a special boy, Tiny's persistence leads to unexpected discoveries. Can this small pup prove that big surprises await those who dare to dig deep?

From the publisher

Sniff! Sniff-sniff!

I smell a bone. A bone that’s BIG.

I’ll get it out, I’ll dig and dig.

A big, BIG bone! I know it’s there!

It will take work, but I don’t care!

Tiny may be a small dog, but don’t let that fool you. He’s a pooch with power who knows what he wants. And he’s going for it. But oh, those pesky pessimists – they’re trying to rain on Tiny’s dig-parade!

Thank goodness for one special boy who believes in Tiny, because in the end, this dog’s grit proves that he’s the little pup who could… dig up some giant surprises!
