As she braves her first day of school in the swamp, Roux discovers that what makes us different is also what makes us shine.

Roux has never felt so nervous. She's about to begin kinder-swamp-garten and she will be the only rougarou in her class. As she walks to school beneath the towering cypress trees, one by one, fellow swamp creatures join in, each one different from the next. With their help, Roux's jitters melt into joy, and she discovers that what makes us different is also what makes us shine. Rooted in Louisiana's rich folklore, this gentle, playful story introduces the legendary rougarou in a family-friendly way. Perfect for any little one getting ready for their own big first day, Roux's tale is a celebration of belonging, courage, and the magic of being yourself.
