When a young brown-skinned girl is born, her life is full of possibilities. As she grows and learns, she's told that being a big girl is a good thing. Later, the word big begins to have negative connotations when others use it to make fun of her, exclude her, or single her out, such as in ballet class. Eventually, the girl tires of feeling bad about who she is and she decides to give the hurtful words of others back to them. She stands up for herself and chooses to love herself just as she is.
