Meet Zeke the zebra, who sees his reflection and gallops off on an adventure to learn about the color of his skin.
Set in the African savanna, the story begins as Zeke wonders whether he is a black zebra with white stripes or a white zebra with black stripes. In his search for answers, his animal friends' opinions have only made him feel confused and inferior. Perflex, Zeke decides to approach his wisest friend, Matilda the elephant. With Matilda's sensible words, Zeke soon discovers that color or physical appearance is unimportant, as long as one realizes what really matters.
Celebrating the diversity of our human race, this thoughtful fable offers young readers a simple and clear explanation of how differences in physical appearances do not matter, because What Really Matters! is the personality or inner character with each of us.
