What is Forget-me-not Beautiful Buttercup about?

Buttercup the warthog is tired of being called ugly. The other animals laugh at her tiny tusks, wrinkly skin and unusual appearance, but Forget-Me-Not the elephant sees something special in his new friend. Determined to change their minds, he sets out to show everyone that beauty is more than looks. As the animals discover Buttercup’s courage and kindness, they begin to see her differently. A warm story about friendship, standing up for others and celebrating what makes each of us unique.
