I Am Nefertiti

Author: Annemarie AnangIllustrator: Natelle Quek

When the music teacher annoyingly calls her ‘Nef’, something odd happens to Nefertiti. Will she recall Dad’s words and stand tall? This is a humorous yet empowering debut with an important message about being respected for who you are. With lively illustrations, it’s great for developing empathy and reading aloud.
