Tiney Tiny Turner is the very definition of “great things come in small packages.” He is a wonderful friend and an encouragement to everyone he meets, and he is beyond determined to succeed. He might be incredibly small in stature, but he manages to build the confidence of those around him with affirmations as he spreads the good news that being different is definitely a good thing. His priority is leading others to be themselves and be comfortable in their own skin. Tiney Tiny Turner, always smiling, is quite the firecracker.

Tiney Tiny Turner: I Feel Different, written by Webilor Ediale and illustrated by Shiela Alejandro, is a children’s book designed to help readers learn to appreciate the differences in others as well as their own. Throughout the book, Ediale keeps the narrative focused on how size, shape, and skin color do not define us but make us unique and make our gifts stand out.

Alejandro’s illustrations are eye-catching, with vibrant colors and characters with whom readers will relate. There is something for every reader within the pages of Ediale’s book. Tiney Tiny Turner is a likable character who captures the imagination of readers with his miniature stature and his bigger-than-life personality. The book’s encouraging words and engaging illustrations make for a fun read overall.

Tiney Tiny Turner: I Feel Different is written in rhyming verse with an extensive vocabulary that may prove challenging for younger readers, but does provide an opportunity for discussion and learning. I recommend Ediale’s book to those who want to spark discussions about appreciating differences and remaining upbeat and determined in the face of adversity.
