Frustrated by a day full of teachers and classmates
mispronouncing her beautiful name, a little girl tells her
mother she never wants to come back to school. In response, the
girl's mother teaches her about the musicality of African,
Asian, Black-American, Latinx, and Middle Eastern names on
their lyrical walk home through the city. Empowered by this
newfound understanding, the young girl is ready to return the
next day to share her knowledge with her class. Your Name is
a Song is a celebration to remind all of us about the
beauty, history, and magic behind names.Book, 44 pages.
Your Name is a Song is used in Jeanette Shorey's book
Stories that Sing, Too!.
