Tiny Steam Tug

A heartwarming tale about courage, kindness, and discovering your inner strength.

When the town faces a coal shortage in the middle of winter, only one tugboat is available to help—but he’s small and unsure of himself. Tiny Steam Tug must find the confidence to take on a big job and prove that even the smallest among us can do mighty things. With encouragement from Grandpa Tug and a heart full of love, Tiny learns that it’s not your size that matters, but the strength of your heart.

As he drifts off to sleep, Drake imagines himself as the Tiny Steam Tug, realizing that just like the boat, he needs sleep to grow, help others, and be his very best.
