That's Not My Name! by Anoosha Syed

A debut picture book about loving your name, finding your voice, and standing up for yourself from the critically acclaimed illustrator of Bilal Cooks Daal and I Am Perfectly Designed.

Mirha is so excited for her first day of school! She can't wait to learn, play, and make new friends. But when her classmates mispronounce her name, she goes home wondering if she should find a new one. Maybe then she'd be able to find a monogrammed keychain at the gas station or order a hot chocolate at the cafe more easily.
 
Mama helps Mirha to see how special her name is, and she returns to school the next day determined to help her classmates say it correctly--even if it takes a hundred tries.

Sarah Hines Stephens has been a children's book reader, editor, seller, buyer, doctor, author, copyeditor, ghostwriter, and speaker for many years--and she is still most of those things. She makes her home in Oakland, California where she lives with her husband, two kids, and two dogs. When she is not doing book related things, Sarah enjoys cooking and eating and gardening and traveling. And she's pretty good at them. Sarah is not a good dancer, but she does that anyway. Sarah is the coauthor of the Bug Girl series (Bug Girl: Fury on the Dance Floor) with Benjamin Harper.

Benjamin Harper was born and raised in St. Petersburg, Florida where he spent his time obsessing over insects, dinosaurs, space travel, and kaiju attacks. He went to Warren Wilson College in the beautiful mountains of North Carolina and then moved to New York where he started working in children's publishing. He's been involved in children's books ever since, as both an editor and author. Currently, he lives in Los Angeles, California where he works on super hero stories and lives with his cat Edith Bouvier Beale, III. Benjamin is the coauthor of the Bug Girl series (Bug Girl: Fury on the Dance Floor) with Sarah Hines Stephens.
