Tiny Tyrant_COVER_300rgb

There once was a king who was very small
(Many people almost couldn't see him at all)
But his wants were great
And would not abate
Luckily he would be easily distracted and stall.

We love the Tiny Tyrant!  He is so tiny, yet so tyrannical!  And also so incompetant.  If only all our tyrannical rulers would have as their highest ambition to not be bored, and also bioengineer dinosaurs while they're at it.
