Introduction to a New Adventure
Bestselling author and speaker Luvvie Ajayi Jones is set to inspire the younger generation with her new children’s book, Little Troublemaker Defends Her Name. Scheduled for release on May 6, 2025, this book promises to deliver an important message about embracing one’s identity and standing up against adversity.
A Journey Through Challenges
In Little Troublemaker Defends Her Name, readers will join the protagonist, Luvvie, as she navigates her first day at a new school. Despite the excitement of new beginnings, she faces various obstacles, including teasing about her name and the challenges of adjusting to a new environment. However, the narrative illustrates that it’s not just about experiencing difficulties, but rather about how one can turn those challenges into opportunities for growth.
Celebrating Each Child’s Identity
Jones emphasizes that this book is a celebration for every child who has ever felt different or marginalized. “I’m excited to release Little Troublemaker Defends Her Name, because it’s a celebration of every child who has ever been made to feel different because of their name,” she stated. Through her storytelling, Jones aims to promote self-love and acceptance, encouraging children to be proud of who they are. The book, published by Philomel Books, an imprint of Penguin Books, is now available for preorder at major retailers.
