Hi! My name is Blue. I'm five 

years old and I live here in  

Hawaii. Everyone gets scared 

when I get near them. I don't 

know why. Is it because I'm 

blue? 

The rest of the crabs are  

always talking about me 

and it hurts my feelings. 

They are red and mean.

 As I walked away from the 

red crabs, I wondered what 

I had to do to blend in with 

them. So, I climbed on a 

boat near the shore and I  

found red paint!

OH, NO !! I didn't think 

that the paint would 

come off with the water!

 Now everyone knows 

that I'm not red but blue! 

I will never have friends.

I'm not weird... I'm not ugly. I'm 

like everyone else. Just because I'm 

blue doesn't mean I'm not like 

them.

I'm a crab. They are crabs, too. Why 

can't they accept me or treat me the 

same ? 

Many fish in the sea are different 

colors. For example, fish, sharks, 

stars, seahorses, and more! As I  

explained this to them, they 

were surprised. Some even felt 

bad.

The Red crabs have finally 

realized that I'm just like them!

We are all best friends, and we 

love hanging out under the sea.

I learned to accept myself and to 

treat everyone the same no 

matter what color or shape they 

are.
