    This is a very nice story it tells us that it doesn't matter if you are different to others as long as you are kind from the inside.

      So true Christopher! It's an important story that teaches us about being different and the power of the human spirit. I'm glad you understood its message.

      Thank you jacinta. I agree. It does have a bittersweet ending. It's hard to imagine being isolated like Suri and the other children.

      Yes, at the beginning they were - because she was different.
