Frankie and the Fuzzy Birthmark

Buy on Amazon

Frankie was born with a fuzzy spot on her back. As she grew, so did her birthmark — and so did the urge to hide it under shirts, jackets, and even Band-Aids. Then one sunny day at the pool, she spots another girl with a birthmark just like hers. And that girl isn't hiding it at all. "This is my special spot," she says proudly. "My one-ofa-kind something." Now the only thing Frankie puts on her birthmark… is sunscreen. A tender, joyful story about learning to love the marks that make you, you. Includes a fun educational section for young readers on birthmarks, freckles, and moles.
