Most books teach kids to help others. Irwin’s Huge Help teaches something rarer — how to ask for help yourself. And brush your teeth while you’re at it!
***
Meet Irwin ― the biggest, kindest and most well-mannered dinosaur in all of Britain!
Irwin loves helping everyone in his small town. Watering trees? Easy. Searching for missing cats? No problem. Making shade for people on sunny days? Already done! There’s nothing this giant dinosaur can’t do ― and he’ll always tell you so!
“I can do everything on my own!”
But when the grand opening of the chocolate factory arrives, Irwin’s good manners go right out the window… and every sweet-looking thing disappears into his enormous mouth ― even the street lamp that looked suspiciously like a lollipop.
The very next day Irwin has the most terrible toothache in dinosaur history. His teeth are HUGE. His pain is HUGE. But his “no, thank you” ― even bigger.
Will Irwin finally learn that asking for help isn’t a sign of weakness ― it’s the bravest thing you can do?
