Does skin colour matter? Or is it how we treat others that truly defines us?
When 8-year-old Panishi comes home from school feeling hurt, she asks her mum a powerful question:
"Does skin colour matter?"
What follows is a heartfelt conversation-and a magical story about a golden cat-that helps Panishi discover something life-changing: her worth has nothing to do with how she looks, and everything to do with who she is.
