T is for Terrible by Peter McCarty

A Tyrannosaurus feels bad that he is so terrible. He can't help stepping on flowers with his big feet, it doesn't work when he tries to eat trees. He just is what he is.

A simple story with beautiful soft illustrations. The Tyrannosaurus is a very sympathetic character, and I really like that the author didn't change his nature to make him fit in. Sometimes you just feel alone, and that others can't understand your differences.
...and maybe being terrible isn't so bad.
