It is the same with Latisha in Berry Much a Miracle. Things for Latisha however, were different. She was worried about how life had changed when her parents divorced. It was good though, that she had a great friend who lived just three houses down the street who understood how she felt.

Bellabunt Elephant
Bellabunt Elephant - Kindle edition by Graves, Catherine. Children Kindle eBooks @ Amazon.com.
It is important for each child to learn to embrace and celebrate their own individuality and this includes their name. Sometimes names have special meanings that children do not always understand. Often, if their name is different (not a John, Joe or Mary), or if they have been teased because of their name, this will be a good book for them. Bellabunt Elephant was so concerned that his name is not good enough to participate in the “Name Rhyme” birthday celebration, but he learned something new… something good.
