Boy with Pink Hair, The

The Boy with Pink Hair was born that way and although people laugh at him, he loves pink, he loves his family, and he loves to cook. When he begins school he is bullied and teased and he learns that it is difficult being different, but when there is a disaster in the school cafeteria it is The Boy with the Pink Hair to the rescue and he shows everyone that his difference did in fact make a difference. This engaging picture book for K-5 can be used as a read-aloud for younger children and for independent or group reading and role play for older students, as well as to launch discussion about bullying, diversity, self-belief, self-concept, and how our differences can make a difference.
