What is the one thing you least expect to experience when you wake up in the morning? Waking up on the kitchen table? Waking up to find out that you wetted your bed? No, no! Emma's situation is a little different. One morning, Emma wakes up to find that something unimaginable has happened to her. There are bumps on both sides of her head, and soon they grow into antlers like seeds growing into a plant! She needs to find out how this difference will make her "cooler." The Girl with Antlers is the story of a child who faces the thing that makes her different and comes to accept it. At first, Emma won't leave the house because of the antlers that have grown on her head. However, her grandpa's wise words make her change her mind. This is a story that makes us question what is `normal' and tells us how our differences can transform us into more colourful and compassionate people.
