Nowadays, more than ever, people feel free to express their individuality by changing the color and style of their hair, by piercings and gauges, by tattooing their bodies, and so many other things. Even the music we listen to is very diverse. In this story, a little boy, who has a crush on a girl who has many of these self-expressions, finds the courage to ask her about each of them. The results are heart-warming. This is a great book to read with your child to open the conversation about personal choice.

From the Author:
