Seven-year-old girl arrives to school with a blade prosthetic, and her friend's reaction is everything

Seven-year-old Anu had her leg amputated shortly after birth, having to wear a prosthetic on a daily basis.

But in an effort to be more mobile, keeping up with her friends in the playground, Anu got a new blade.

The blade is pink as it’s her favourite colour; however, Anu was visibly excited for other reasons, as she explained to the BBC: “It makes me run faster and do my street dancing faster.”

But it was the reaction of her school friend’s that had us in awe once the blade caught their attention, and it is simply amazing.

The moment they hug little Anu, like we just can’t cope.

And as for the two little girls holding hands, marching – pass us the tissues – kids are fantastic.
