"For the girls who need some hope, love, and creativity,

to remember who she is, is enough...

No one can take away your spark, no words can

diminish your joy, and no amount of hatred

can kill your love.

This story is for her, who has tried to fit in her whole

life, but always felt like an outsider.

It's okay to paint by your own rules.

This story is for the girls who see the world in color-

the ones who play around and push the lines and

never stop coloring outside of them.

This story is for the girls who dare to dream and the

women they'll become."
