Whats in a name For one little girl, her very long name tells the vibrant story of where she came from  and who she may one day be. If you ask her, Alma Sofia Esperanza Jose Pura Candela has way too many names six How did such a small person wind up with such a large name Alma turns to Daddy for an answer and learns of Sofia, the grandmother who loved books and flowers Esperanza, the greatgrandmother who longed to travel Jose, the grandfather who was an artist and other namesakes, too. As she hears the story of her name, Alma starts to think it might be a perfect fit after all  and realizes that she will one day have her own story to tell. In her authorillustrator debut, Juana MartinezNeal opens a treasure box of discovery for children who may be curious about their own origin stories or names.
