Synopsis: Young Elizabeth likes her name. She likes that it is nine letters long and that there was a queen named Elizabeth. She has no patience when people call her Lizzy, Beth or Betsy! She shouts at them rudely: MY NAME IS ELIZABETH! Everyone respects her wish, but Elizabeth learns a little patience when her younger sibling calls her Wizabef? “Close enough,” says Elizabeth. Illustrations are pale blue, orange and black and have an old fashioned feel.
What I liked about it and who would enjoy it: The story serves as a reminder to ask small children what they prefer to be called, but also a reminder for respectful communication. It would be a good edition to any picture book collection. Preschool – grade one.
