I Love My Colorful Nails

Ben is a little boy, and he likes painting his nails. There's no big reason to it, he just loves all the amazing colors on the tips of his fingers. Until one day, some of his schoolmates start laughing at him because of it. He suddenly feels sad, helpless, and doesn't want to paint his nails anymore. Even when his father starts painting his nails to support Ben, the helplessness doesn't go away.Why can't boys paint their nails? A tale to understand that a kid's joy has no boundaries. A simple story about a small revolution.
