Littles will see that when we begin to reach out and share, others will be happy and excited to meet us half way. Readers who have ever felt the same anxieties or fears at starting somewhere or something new will connect to the story, and then be inspired, as the characters were, to stay true to who they are, and to share their story with the world. In this book, young students experience this feelings as they begin a new school.

Being different can make us feel frightened and alone~ hesitant to share our true selves with others, and willing to hide behind a quiet or fake facade to fit in. Maybe it’s our skin, our food, our clothes, our interests, our talents, our culture, or even something completely random.

There are many ways and times we can feel different.
