The adventures of two unlikely friends.

Big always sleeps with his beloved stuffed T Rex and sings it a song at bedtime. Small is jealous of the attention that Big shows the toy and tries to make Big jealous by wanting a sleep toy thingie of his own.

But what is that going to be? Big makes him a toy octopus but it doesn't hit the spot. Small tries a Frog but he just jumps back into the garden. He fills the bed with objects but none of them work because none of them make Big remotely jealous. All they do is keep him awake.

Eventually, Big realises what is really happening. He assures Small that T Rex is only a toy, and Small shouldn't be jealous because Small is more than a toy, he is Big's best friend. With that, Small relaxes and they can both go to sleep.
