A 'P' is Just a 'P' and a 'V' is Just a 'V'
Join Boy and Girl on a journey through their school where they discover that everyone can do anything, regardless of being a boy or a girl. Through challenges and triumphs, they learn the importance of tolerance and that a 'P' or 'V' doesn't determine what you'll be.
Boy and Girl were best friends. They loved to do everything together. One day at school, they heard some kids saying that boys could only do certain things and girls could only do others.
Boy and Girl didn't understand why it mattered whether you were a boy or a girl. They decided to ask their teacher, Ms. Lilly, about it.
- Ms. Lilly, why do some kids say boys and girls can't do the same things? Boy asked. - That's a good question, Ms. Lilly replied. - Let's find out together!
Ms. Lilly took Boy and Girl to the library. She showed them books about famous people who did amazing things, no matter if they were boys or girls.
Boy and Girl felt inspired. They decided to prove to everyone that boys and girls could do anything. But first, they needed a plan.
The next day, Boy and Girl wanted to join the soccer game. Some kids said, - Soccer is for boys only!
- That's not true! Girl said. - We can all play! Boy added. They decided to join the game anyway.
Boy and Girl played their best, but the other kids wouldn't pass them the ball. They felt sad and left the game.
Next, Boy and Girl wanted to join the art class. Some kids said, - Art is for girls only!
- That's not true! Boy said. - We can all make art! Girl added. But in the art class, the other kids wouldn't share the supplies.
Boy and Girl went to the playground, feeling upset. - Maybe we should just give up, Boy said. - Maybe they're right, Girl said.
Ms. Lilly saw them and came over. - What's wrong? she asked. - No one believes we can do the same things, Boy said.
- Don't give up, Ms. Lilly said. - Remember the books we read? Anyone can do anything if they try. Let's show them!
Boy and Girl felt hopeful again. They decided to organize a big talent show where everyone could participate, no matter if they were boys or girls.
At the talent show, Boy played the piano, and Girl played soccer. Everyone cheered loudly, amazed by their talents.
After the talent show, the kids understood. - A P is just a P and a V is just a V, and it doesn’t determine what you’ll be! Boy and Girl said.
