Unhei just moved from Korea and classmates can't pronounce her name — so they offer to help her pick a new one. A quiet, tender story about belonging without erasure. Perfect for the moment when a child is navigating what to keep and what to change about themselves. P&P note: names are not problems to be solved. They are introductions.
