I read this one with my second graders and they loved it! It’s fun and silly but also carries a clear message about self acceptance and individuality 🤩

It tells the story of a unique flamingo who loves to dress fancy. She loves her hot pink boa, a large beautiful hat, and sparkly sunglasses. She adorns herself with bracelets and necklaces, always carrying a bright purse to keep her book close. However she does feel different from the other flamingos and questions her fancy appearance and wonders if being different is a good thing.

After giving it a lot of thought she comes to the conclusion that it’s important for her to just be herself. From that day forward, she unapologetically embraced her super fancy style with her head held high!

Beautifully illustrated and cleverly written in rhyme, the story is a gentle reminder for our young ones that it’s okay to be different and to embrace who they are. Also that we should accept others for who they are. 💖 Most children at some point have insecurities about fitting in at school, so books like this play a key part in early education.

We really enjoyed this one and highly recommend adding it to your collection. Let’s encourage our kids to shine in all their unique ways!
