I Am Unique! by Jennifer Vassel

I Am Unique is a story about self-love and sharing your unique gifts with the masses. Erin is the main character of the story. She has a birthmark and a passion for acting. Erin wants to try out for the leading role in her school's play, but when her best friend questions whether she would suit the role because of her birthmark, she has to decide if she's going to let a perceived flaw get in the way of her dream.

This story lives within all of us. Whether it is a birthmark like Erin's, crooked teeth, or even something we can't physically see, we all have something about us that could trigger insecurities. When we live in a time where media largely influences our perceptions of beauty, esteem, and success, we have to be sure that young girls know it's okay to be who they truly are.
