BUYING ADVISORY: Pre-K, EL (K-3) - ADVISABLE
AUDIENCE APPEAL: AVERAGE
Mirha is excited for the first day of school, but after everyone, including her teacher, says her name incorrectly, she isn’t sure she wants to go back for day two. Her mama reminds her that her names means “happiness” and that people are capable of saying different names. Mirha is ready to kindly keep correctly people the next day and realizes that people want to say her name the right way.
Syed’s own illustrations are bright and bubbly to complement her story of owning your name and kindly expecting people to respect it – a simple, but necessary lesson. Excellent for those first few weeks of a new school year.
