Summary:

This is a nonfiction picture book about acceptance. It tells the tale of a 4-year-old boy who happily expresses his authentic self by enjoying "traditional girl" things like jewelry, sparkles, or anything pink. It is designed to start and continue a dialogue about unconditional friendship and teaches children and adults how to accept and support children for who they are and how they wish to look. Inspired by the author's own son, and by her own struggles to understand, this is a mother's story about unconditional love and aceptance at home and at school.
