Young Saajin loves his name, even singing it in the tub, but when he goes to school, he’s nonplussed to discover his teacher can’t pronounce it. Unsure if he should correct her, the young boy ponders his dilemma and learns an empowering lesson about the importance of being true to his identity. Vibrant and colourful, Samrath Kaur’s lively illustrations give the story a bright and bouncy vibe. A useful read for little ones who sometimes feel misunderstood.
