by Amy Land (Author)
Growing up with vitiligo, a rare skin condition, Winnie Harlow was teased for being different. She often felt like she didn't belong. It wasn't easy, but instead of shrinking herself, she chose to stand tall. She went from wishing her skin would change to becoming a world-famous model and the founder of her own skincare brand.
From major runways to global stages, Winnie has inspired millions by showing that confidence isn't about being perfect, it's about owning who you are. This is the powerful true story of a Canadian girl who turned her difference into strength and changed the conversation about beauty forever.Key Selling Points:
