The young girl’s pride in her new “sports blade” is evident and wonderful to see, but it’s the reaction of the kids, who rush to her side with hugs and obvious joy, that is so memorable.

One is heard asking the girl, named Anu, “Is that your new pink leg?” And another says, “Wow!” They then proceed to run around the playground with Anu leading the way.
