Tess has a BIG problem. She’s a giant with an enormous wish to be like everyone else in the city of Myth-hattan. When she gives up on ever fitting in, she meets a friend just her size, and the two team up for a daring rescue. Can these misfits save the day — and the big city parade?
Internationally acclaimed and bestselling author-illustrator Dan Yaccarino presents a larger than life picture book about a girl with a heart as giant as she is. This reassuring and heartwarming tale will empower young readers struggling to find acceptance, and it reminds us that there’s a hero within every one of us.
"The book is filled with insider Manhattan jokes (endpapers show a map including the Lower Beast Side and Monster Square Garden) and myriad mythical creatures strolling casually by; readers will delight in spotting them all.... Hidden humorous notes enhance a fanciful story of empowerment." — Kirkus Reviews
