Toby

This is a story about a puppy who grew up to become a very different dog, in colors and characteristics. He refuses to accept his difference and tries to fit in with the others. But he isn't accepted. He finds company in a parrot, and they become friends. The parrot tells him to be himself and encourages him too. One day he finds his mojo; he could bark and better than all.
The moral of the story is to accept ourselves the way we are and not the way others want to define us.
