Freckleface Strawberry will do anything to get rid of her freckles – from scrubbing them with soap to caking on makeup… and even wearing a ski mask to school!

With the help of her loveable schoolmates\, including an amazingly talented ballerina\, a cutie jock\, a charming ditz and a totally kooky teacher\, Freckleface learns that everyone is different – and that’s what makes everyone special. \nATTIRE – For field trips\, we ask everyone to wear the official field trip orange t-shirt so our group is easy to spot and students can be identified quickly in open public spaces. It helps with safety\, headcounts\, and keeping everyone together.
