«No sóc rossa» is a children's book by Kirmen Uribe, illustrated by Mikel Valverde, published by La Galera, SAU in paperback (32 pages, in Catalan).
The narrator says that making friends is sometimes hard, but since she wrote her classmates' names in Arabic, she has started to make them. She wanted to be blonde, but discovers that almost no one around her is: most have brown hair and dark skin like hers, and she ends up feeling good about her hair color.
It belongs to the «I Què?» collection (no. 12) and was published in 2004; the Catalan edition is a translation of an original work in Basque.
Recommended for young readers aged 8 and up, for its theme of friendship and self-acceptance.
