Book Synopsis

Meet Wanda the warthog! She may worry from time to time, but with a little help from her jungle friends, she'll learn that the best thing to do is be herself.

Wanda the warthog is perfectly proud to be her. Until a rainbow of beautiful scarlet macaw parrots come to town, and Wanda suddenly starts to doubt herself. And compare herself to the macaws. She even tries to walk like the macaws, look like the macaws, and sound like the macaws... But the macaws don't notice her at all.

It's up to Wanda's true friends to remind her that she shouldn't try to be somebody else. Because all that matters is: does she like herself?
