A boy chooses his favorite pink T-shirt to wear on Uniform-free Day—but not everyone thinks it’s cool.

Excited at the prospect of Uniform-free Day at school, Pascal puts on his favorite pink T-shirt. However, when he is ridiculed by his classmates for wearing pink, a crestfallen Pascal finds the courage to stand up for himself, giving examples of things that are pink and showing how sad life would be without them. Shocked by the thought of a world without bubble gum, strawberry milkshakes, and piglets, the children soften and apologize to Pascal. Pink is for Piglets celebrates individuality, courage, and the overturning of stereotypes.
