My name is Elizabeth by Annika Dunkee and illustrated by Matthew Forsythe

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.
