Lila has just moved to a new town and can't wait to make friends at
school. But on the first day, a boy points at her and shouts: "A
crow! A crow! The new girl's hair is black like a crow!" The others
whisper and laugh, and Lila's heart grows as heavy as a stone. The
next day, Lila covers her hair. But this time, the boy points at
her dark skin. When she covers her face, he mocks her dark eyes.
Now every day at school, Lila hides under her turtleneck, dark
glasses, and hat. And every day when she goes home, she sees a crow
who seems to want to tell her something. Lila ignores the bird and
even throws rocks at it, but it won't go away. Meanwhile, the great
autumn festival is approaching. While the other kids prepare their
costumes, Lila is sadder and lonelier than ever. At her lowest
point of despair, a magical encounter with the crow opens Lila's
eyes to the beauty of being different, and gives her the courage to
proudly embrace her true self.
