No one wanted to play with the little girl, so she would take long solitary walks in the forest. She would sometimes cry while looking at her reflexion in a pond and wonder why people told her she was so ugly. One day her tears rolled into the water down to the fishes, and her sobs reached the forest animals' ears. They all gathered to observe the little girl.
"Why do you cry, little one?" bubbled the fish in the pond.
"Why are you so sad, white one?" the birds chirped. The plants and flowers caressed her cheek and hair. The deer, foxes and bunnies would circle around her, nuzzling and nibbling to try and clam her down.
"Because they say i'm so ugly," the girl sniffled. "They won't accept me cuz i've got no colors on me, just plain and ugly white." Fresh tears began falling from her white and colorless eyes.
The white owl, considered very wise by many in the forest, hooted sofly to the girl. "Silly little girl, you believe the words of ignorants? Do you not know that white is the mix of all the colors of the rainbow?"
"All the colors?" the girl whispered.
"Correct. You've always had the colors in you, we'll just have to help you bring them out." The animals began murmuring to eachother, eager to help the little girl.
"I will show you about yellow with my feathers," sang the canary.
"And blue with mine," cried the bluejay.
"We can teach you about orange and red with our scales," gurgled the fish.
"We'll give you our green," whispered the grass.
"And u can have my purple," giggled a butterfly.
Each one of the kind spirits of nature touched the girl's long white hair, and slowly it began to catch colors from the rainbow.
"Wait!" the girl cried. She looked down at her white hands and then at the wise white owl. "I still want to keep some white, like the wise owl." She smiled.
The villagers were all amazed when they watched the girl walk back into the village. She had the most beautiful multicolored hair, her eyes were two small rainbows, and a healty pink glowed from her smiling face. Now they had to regret their insults and admire the harmony than shone from the elf that possessed all colors.
