Your name means you’re different
Your name means you’re you
When an Indian-American boy starts school in a new classroom, one child can't pronounce his name properly, which leads to giggles amongst his classmates. Later at home, his parents remind him of how special he is - and how his unique name reflects that.
From the author of the upcoming Brown Is Beautiful, Supriya Kelkar writes a stunning tributary poem to the word that identifies each of us the very most - our name. And paired with lush illustrations by Sandhya Prabhat, this picture book reminds readers of the beauty in celebrating difference, taking pride in uniqueness, and helping others to do the same.
