Charlie's parents say that Tex, his new, large toy dinosaur, is "too big" for most activities, but when it's time to visit the doctor all the other stuffed animals hide, and Tex is thrilled to finally be invited to go along. The story will engage preschoolers, though the text loses some of its momentum before the end. Retro artwork in pale colors contains humorous details.
