It Ain't Easy Being Green: best friends forever Edward Dreyfus

Fair-skinned, wheelchair-bound Jeremy begins his first day of the fourth grade at his new school like all other days - wishing kids would stop staring at him and treating him like a freak. He is shocked when he is befriended by a very tall boy who stands out almost as much as Jeremy does for his dark skin, height, and energetic personality. As they become close friends, Emmitt's abundant confidence begins to rub off on Jeremy just as Jeremy's strategic brain helps his friend modify his impulsive behavior. The two unlikely friends discover that together they can face personal challenges, prejudices, and bullies and work hard to chase their dreams, but will it be enough to overcome long-term separation?
