description: Painted A Book about Birthmarks , candidly points at a mark that is erroneously defined as a blemish. This book proves the beauty of birthmarks by distinguishing children who wear them. The straightforward book started with a little girl pointing an unassuming finger at another girl's face, and asking, "What's that mark on you?" The unhesitant girl bearing the mark, proudly states, "That's my birthmark." They proceeded to play together upon that initial meeting, without any reservations or tension. Taken aback by the innocent candor of the situation, I later took my outspoken daughter aside to show her birthmarks illustrated in a medical book. While explaining the different markings to my 2-year old, an entourageof inquisitive children from our building began hovering over the medical book with awe and curiosity. Consequently, the conception of Painted Keepsakes came forth.
