Tiny The Birthday Dog

Today is Tiny’s birthday! His best friend prepares a cake, present, and decorations, all described in simple, easy-to-read vocabulary. Like the previous books in this series about the lovable, oversized dog Tiny, this is a relatable and funny friendship story that beginning readers will be proud to read all by themselves. “Add Tiny to the roll call of great dogs in children’s literature: Ribsy, Martha, Carl, Mudge. He may just wind up being a young reader's best friend.”—The Horn Book on Tiny Goes to the Library

Just when it seemed pets couldn't get any more adorable, we discovered Tiny Dog. Direct from Japan, this is the sweetest—and smallest—pet around. It is the size of a macaron, and its mischievous adventures in a full-size world are chronicled in the pages of this ebook. Animal lovers of any size will enjoy following along as Tiny Dog encounters everyday objects like a strawberry, a ball of yarn, a rubber ducky, and more. The resulting cuteness knows no limits!

Tiny and his best friend love winter. And the best thing about winter is playing in the snow! Tiny's friend throws a snowball, and Tiny runs to catch it. Tiny runs and runs until his friend can't see him anymore. Where is Tiny? He is missing! And what is that sound? Is it a snow monster crunching through the snow, or is it just Tiny the snow dog?

Tiny and his friend are going camping! First, they gather supplies, then they venture into the great outdoors (a safe backyard) to set up camp and play games. Together they sing songs, chase frogs, and capture fireflies. But when it’s bedtime, they discover Tiny isn’t quite tiny enough for the tent. That’s okay! Tiny always finds his own way to fit anywhere.

When Tiny was a puppy, he fit inside a shoe. He fit in a bag, and he even fit in a pocket. Then Tiny grew, and now he is too big for his doghouse. He is too big to lick his friend's face--yuck! Young readers will enjoy this sweet, funny story about a very big dog who was once a tiny puppy. Not since Clifford has a big dog been so appealing!

It's clear that Tiny is a not-so-tiny dog. A pail, a sink, and even a bathtub are too small to wash him in. Will Tiny ever get the mud cleaned off him? Find out in this fun Level 1 reader.
