Trevor, the young boy in Handsome Me, rises above a hurtful
encounter with some of his friends and playmates. Rather than become a
victim of his friends' insensitivity and accept and internalize their
negative remarks about his physical appearance, he draws from his own inner
strength and with a healthy and mature examination of himself reaffirms his
strong positive self image with enough force to cancel out any negative or
malicious words directed at him.
