Bird Boy
Nico is new and worried about going to school. On his first day he plays by himself, making friends with beetles and the birds – other students see this and he gets mocked as being ‘BIRD BOY’. Nico uses his imagination to fly away just like a bird. Soon, Nico makes one friend, and then two who appreciate him for who he is – imaginative, kind, and unapologetically himself!
