Randy Rainbow is uniquely himself. He loves painting his nails and listening to old Broadway albums.

But when some kids at school tease Randy for being who he is, he goes to his beloved granny for a solution. And she has just the thing - a pair of sparkly pink glasses.

The moment Randy puts the glasses on, the drab world around him turns Technicolor in a blink! The town swimming pool? It's full of mermaids, including a mer-Randy!

Everything is more fun with the glasses - including Randy himself - and Randy's confidence grows and grows. But is the magic inside the glasses... or inside Randy?

With bright, beautiful art and a hero you'll root for on every page, this is a fun and powerful book about embracing who you really are - even when it's easier to blend in.
