hello.

Have you ever felt out of place?
Maybe a little different?
That's okay, we have too.
Join Poncho on his path to self discovery.
This is a story about empathy and inclusion.
Many children's stories just told the journey and growth of the character, but don't allow the reader to build their own personal narrative. We believe that everyone should have the chance to develop their own identities for the characters based on how they see them.
The lack of faces in the book creates a neutral environment in order for all readers to decide how the they feel about the character without the story telling them how they should be inclined to feel. Readers have the chance to understand how Poncho, the villagers, Smith, and even Big Chief Domingo feel as the story progresses.
Poncho encourages everyone to express their own story and appreciate that other's may tell one that is completely different from their own.
