Description

A little girl loves the gorgeous freckles that adorn her face and make her special, no matter what anyone else says, in this fresh, lively picture book perfect for fans of I Am Enough and Skin Like Mine.

Pecosita has the most magnificent face full of freckles. Her abuela says they make her shine as bright as the estrellas in the sky! Sometimes, kids make fun and say Pecosita’s face looks like it’s full of spots. But Pecosita knows hers are as stunning as the dots on her dalmatian, Bean, and as dazzling as the delicious chocolate chips in her favourite cookies.

Her deep love for her freckly face reminds us that differences are okay and learning to embrace our differences helps us see what’s beautiful about everyone.
