Purples hang with other Purples. Blues hang with Blues. Talls hang with Talls. Shorts hang with Shorts. But when a Purple grows up beside him, Blue keeps his distance and tells Purple that he doesnt belong in the Blue Patch. \"I don't like Purple!\" Blue complains to his mom. When she asks why, Blue replies, \"Because he's different.\" Fortunately, Blue's mom is around to point out what Blue has in common with Purple, and how much Blue and his friends can learn from the wind, the rain, and the bees, who treat all flowers the same. She teaches him that when it comes to flower petals, there is no right or wrong-only different, and that different is beautiful, like the notes you hear in a song. Whats more, Blues mom goes on to tells him that the world would be a very boring place to live if all the flowers were just like him, and that growing in the right direction means celebrating what makes every flower unique.Will Blue open his heart and start to see things from a different lens?
