I Am Not a Banana! (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798241199157)

A Children's Book About Knowing Who You Are
Based on a true story

What happens when someone calls you something that just isn't true?

In I Am Not a Banana, young readers follow Kenzie as she learns an important lesson about identity, words, and confidence. When hurtful names and whispers start to make her question herself, Kenzie's mom helps her see the truth in a simple and memorable way: just because someone says something doesn't make it true.

After all, if someone called you a banana... would that make you one?

Through gentle humor, relatable moments, and heartfelt illustrations, I Am Not a Banana teaches children that their identity is not defined by what others say about them. Instead, they are wonderfully made by God, deeply loved, and secure in who they are.

This story helps children:

• Understand that hurtful words don't define them

• Build confidence and emotional resilience

• Learn to pause and check their hearts before believing lies

• Remember that God created them with purpose and care

Perfect for ages 4-8, this book is ideal for:

• Parents navigating conversations about bullying or name calling

• Teachers and counselors encouraging emotional awareness

• Faith based families wanting a gentle biblical foundation

• Any child learning how to stand firm in who they are

With warmth, truth, and a touch of fun, I Am Not a Banana reminds every child (and grown up) of this simple truth:

You are not what others call you.
You are who God says you are.
