A young girl named Violet is upset because all of her classmates have red, yellow or blue skin, but hers is purple! Following a heartfelt discussion with her mother, Violet realizes that she should not worry about being like other people and that people should appreciate her for who she is - not the colour of her skin. Through this story, students learn to examine how communities benefit from the diversity of their individual community members. Digital images with a hand-drawn feel bring this touching story to life.--Ministry of Education website. .
