Tyrone is an easy-going and sensible young moose, also Pablo's best friend. Tyrone is a deep thinker, which may make him seem a master of the obvious sometimes. But he always enjoys a challenge because he knows, in his heart, that he is equal to it and he'll find a way to figure it out. Tyrone owns a bike used to deliver mail as the paperboy and lives in an orange house. His favorite music is the polka. He can talk to Wormans. Tyrone is the tallest Backyardigan, because of his large antlers.
Description
Tyrone is the sunny one. He’s easygoing and can get along with anybody. Pablo's his best friend, afte
r all! He takes life's ups and downs in stride, things just don't get under his skin. He's a deep thinker, which may make him seem a
little slow on the uptake sometimes. He’s confident and enjoys a challenge because he knows, in his heart, that he is equal to it. There’s always a way and he’s bound to figure it out. Tyrone is the nicest little moose you ever met. He’s an easygoing, laid-back kid with a sunny disposition. Things just don’t get under his skin; he’s got his hands in his pockets and a cool head of antlers on his shoulders. A deep thinker, Tyrone may seem a little slower than his speedy best buddy Pablo, but they’re perfect complements to each other. Whatever problem Pablo can imagine, Tyrone can solve.
Tyrone is also the group scaredy-cat and is afraid of most things, including robotic bugs, ghosts, and spooky voices. He usually makes a moaning sound and puts his hands in his pockets whenever he is nervous.
