Maxi was born a perfect baby girl, but a terrible accident left her burned and scarred. Her family never talked about the scars, and soon Maxi forgot all about them.
When Maxi went to school, she had a kind and thoughtful teacher, and no one pointed or stared or called her bad names. Then, her family moved and matters at Maxi's new school were totally different. On the very first day, the students acted like Maxi was a monster. They called her Burnt Head Collard Greens.
Young Maxi shows us how it feels to be different because of a physical defect. She shows what it feels like when a teacher is silent, and what can happen when a teacher steps in to make the bullying stop. Above all, Maxi shows us how, with courage and a teacher's help, it can all get better.
