How important, how useful is your name – or anyone’s name? Come along and explore. 

Murguia has written a book on a topic I didn’t even know I wanted to read about. Her rhyming couplets flow throughout – and her illustrations are adorable and detailed – so much so that I most of the time forgot to read the words. A tiny minority might get theirs panties wadded because on one page a Louis tries on a tutu and an “A” on the end of their name – but don’t be afraid! Cuteness abounds!
