The Green Flamingo - Paperback

by David Pedemonte-Forte (Author)

The Green Flamingo is the story about a flamingo who was born different. Throughout her life, The Green Flamingo was bullied for her appearance not looking like the other flock. The Green Flamingo is a story of hope, bravery, and understanding.

This a book meant to teach people to preserve the environment and the dangers of wasting chemicals on the ground. This book is also against bullying and discrimination. It is to teach children and adults to treat each other with respect and dignity. No matter who is different, we are all equals in the eyes of the Lord. From this book, I have created a ballet so the viewers can see and grasp the purpose of the book visibly. The book is described in great details through the ballet from the beginning to end. This book was written to detail my experience in elementary and junior high when I was bullied because of my disability and because of my hight. That is why I created The Green Flamingo because The Green Flamingo is me. And when people read the book and see the ballet, they will see that the green Flamingo could be themselves as well.
