Sobre este artículo
Chicago, Ill: Polychrome, 1992. Hardcover. Fine copy in near fine(+) jacket./fine. Quarto in yellow boards with illustration in yellow jacket with same illustration; color illus.; 1 volume (unpaged); 26 cm. In English. Includes clippings related to book. || Abstract: "An East Indian boy encounters frustration in school when he is told that his name, Ashok, is difficult to pronounce. He is not satisfied with his father's explanation of the name and proceeds to adopt another so that he will, hopefully, be more comfortable in the class. Each change of name only receives laughter and Ashok begins to sulk. The school librarian offers help and explains that his own grandfather was forced to give up his original name when he was sold into slavery. Ashok eventually realizes that he is fortunate in having such an unusual name and takes pride in it."
