The Boy Who Grew Flowers by Jen Wojtowicz
Rink is a very unusual boy who grows beautiful flowers all over his body whenever the moon is full. In town and at school, Rink and his family are treated as outcasts although no-one knows his strange botanical secret. But one day a new girl arrives at school, and Rink discovers she has some unique qualities of her own. Using humour and metaphor to promote acceptance, this lushly illustrated and touching story will be a wonderful addition to any child's library.
