Tiny and Bigman — Phillis Gershator

Opposites certainly do attract in this lively Caribbean tale of Miss Tiny and Mr. Bigman. A strong woman with a booming voice, Tiny is always eager to lend a hand. Chopping sugarcane, building a house, and digging a deep-water port, it's all the same to Tiny. She can do anything. Mr. Bigman on the other hand is a skinny man with a hearing problem and no muscles. But, oh, can he cook Together they make a fine match that not even a hurricane can disturb. Warm and vibrant paintings in the brilliant colors of the tropics combine with fresh island dialect to bring these spirited characters to life.
