A captivating, adorable, and award-winning book about a girl with a sparkly bun dress that empowers kids ages 5-9 to embrace what is unique about themselves and others.
Emme loves her sparkly bun and gets teased for wearing it too much, dressing identically to her classmates to fit in.

Encouraged by her mother and father to embrace her style and identity, she has a lightbulb moment and designs her special bun – the kind no one else at school has.
