Tired of the constant pressure to be like everyone else?  Are you ready to stand up and celebrate who you are and your uniqueness?  Well, meet "The Originals" and be a part of a new movement that will be sweeping every school in the world.  Each member of "The Originals" has a unique physical feature that is different than "The Normals."  Grippy’s hands, Dumbo’s ears, Cranium’s brain, Coke Bottles' eyes, Cyrano’s nose, and Charlie’s heart.  Together they try to create a united front against conformity and the idea that everyone should be the same in this charming, often comic and ultimately enlightening celebration of uniqueness.
