In a world, where beauty is most important to everyone. A tenacious little girl comes to challenge the status quo. Leah is an elementary-aged girl that refuses to conform to the standards of superficiality. She is determined to show her friends that she is more than that! Throughout her journey, she questions herself and what she offers to the world. At a very young age. If people don't recognize her talents, do they even exist? Contrary to the traditional coming-of-age story; Leah wants to show the world that she is much MORE than just a pretty face. She is Smart; She is Talented and Creative. She is downright AMAZING!!! Don't Call Me Pretty, is a humorous and inspirational tale that should be read by young women everywhere. This story lays a foundation for young girls to recognize their strengths and abilities. It is the hope that many young women come to realize, as young girls that there is more skill and value in them; then they could have ever imagined. This story portrays the message that there is someone out there, like you. So, it's okay to be different. It's okay to learn and grow. Society makes us believe in our self, less and less. We continue to compare ourselves to other people. Negative thinking embeds itself in our minds when we are in the purest time of our life. In order to change the future, we have to change the present. Let's Start with our Children.
