<transcy> If Only I Had A Green Nose(Si seulement j'avais un nez vert)</transcy>
Presentation
A green nose. How stupid! thinks Punchinello. Why want a nose that doesn't make him faster, stronger, or smarter, that would only make him greener, and that would make him look like other Vémiches! He knows Eli made them all different for good reason. But when Punchinello spaces his visits to Eli, the idea of a nose painted green doesn't seem so stupid to him anymore.
Now more than ever, Punchinello needs to hear his creator say to him: "I will always help you to be yourself, like I made you." "
Like Punchinello, we all want to have a place in society, to be accepted by the group. But sometimes it may force us to act like everyone else, to be like other people, or to run the risk of being rejected. Punchinello will understand the hard way that what matters is to be yourself, as you were created, and why it is important to live that way. So, let this lovely tale remind you of two things: There is a reason why you are a unique creature, and someone will always be by your side to help you be you, wonderfully you.
