Thunder Boy Jr. wants a normal name - one that's all his own. Dad is known as Big Thunder, but Little Thunder doesn't want to share a name. This illustrated book explores the concept of identity as Thunder Boy Jr. wishes for a unique name of his own, different from his father’s and based on his experiences, skills, traits, passions, and dreams. Just when Thunder Boy Jr. thinks all hope is lost of receiving a suitable name, his dad chooses the perfect name. Although the book connects to the importance of naming ceremonies or rituals, that aspect is not explained.--Ministry of Education website.
