Important issues of discrimination, prejudice, and tolerance are explored in this strikingly illustrated book about Tommy the triceratops. When Tommy and his friends chase new arrivals from their watering hole because they look different, their herd leader Alexander suggests a kinder approach. Soon, Tommy tries to repair the situation — but finds himself cornered by a hungry T-Rex! An unexpected hero comes to the rescue, teaching Tommy that he must value people not by appearance but by their character.
