Description
In this autobiographical picture book, a little boy named René moves to the United States from El Salvador. He is embarrassed to learn that in English his name is a girl's name, even though it is spelled differently. His classmates laugh at him until he proves what a powerful boy's name it can be. The story is a wonderful way to introduce children to cultural and linguistic differences.
