With his family's support, Yefferson finds the courage to stand up for himself and his namesake. Yefferson, Actually is wonderful new picture book to embrace in the pantheon of classic Back to School stories. Follow sweet and unassuming Yefferson - proudly pronounced with the sound the Y makes in Spanish, not the J in English - as learns to overcome what is a common, but often undiscussed hurdle for all shy kids entering a new school year: correctly teaching people how to say your name correctly. In a picture book market that too often doesn't highlight Latinx boys as the main characters of their own stories, Yefferson stands up and stands out for his kindness, gentleness, and strength when he treats others how he wants to be treated. Perfect for lovers of King of Kindergarten and Alma and How She Got Her Name, Yefferson, Actually is the debut picture book for both authors and the illustrator, and the first book in a new series centered on Yefferson and his friends' adventures. This back-to-school book is the perfect addition for your little one's at-home library, as it will motivate them to stand up for themselves and realize that their familial roots came from growing seeds of pride and history.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eKatherine Trejo is a first-generation Salvadoran-American college graduate with a bachelor's degree in politics and Latin American\/Latino studies from UC Santa Cruz.
