Oh wow... I haven't read this yet, but I've actually seen this story before. The little girl in the story was actually used as a reference for the mutant girl in the X-Men issue of Kurt Busiek's amazing miniseries Marvels

Edit: Ah, I see they mentioned that at the bottom of the story.

The one where the shunned girl was beautiful and the rest of the world was ugly. At least both were by our standards.
