On his first day at a new school, Yefferson realizes that everyone - his teacher, the lunch lady, and his peers - incorrectly call him Jefferson.

With the love and support of his family, Yefferson finds the courage to teach others how to pronounce his name correctly and to be proud of his namesake.

This author & illustrator debut is a welcome spin on the classic "back to school" story, showcasing the value of kindness, respect, and treating others as you'd like them to treat you. Yefferson is a role model, and a great addition to any library.
