This show follows 8-year-old Lily Polkadot, who just moved to the "squares only" small town of Rockaway. As the first Polkadot in an all-square school, Lily faces the almost impossible task of gaining acceptance from her peers. From daily bullying to segregated drinking fountains, Lily's quest seems hopeless until she meets Sky, a shy square boy whose curiosity for her unique polka dot skin blooms into an unexpected pal-ship. Inspired by the events of The Little Rock Nine, Polkadots serves as a history lesson for children, reminding them that our individual differences make us awesome, not outcasts.
