Freckleface Strawberry by Julianne Moore
4.0
I read this sweet story because it is illustrated by Leyeun Pham.
Freckleface Strawberry is an ordinary girl except that she is covered with freckles. She doesn't like being teased about them so she tries to get rid of them. She tried scrubbing them off. That didn't work. She tried putting lemon juice all over them. It didn't do the trick either. She tried colouring herself with a marker, but Mother's don't like it when you draw on yourself. Then Freckleface Strawberry tried hiding her freckles. She wore long pants and a long shirt. She wore a balaclava on her head. It worked. At school no one recognized her, but she was lonely. It's only when a baby laughs at her freckles and the baby's mother tells her that she once had freckles, that our girl finds hope. When her disguise is removed all her friends come to welcome her.
