About the Book
My Name Is Not Little Birdie Books is a powerful and inspiring memoir that explores themes of identity, race, culture, and the power of storytelling to bridge gaps. Through her compelling narrative, Dr. Andrea Robertson shares her journey from a young girl struggling with her identity to becoming a successful author and advocate for literacy and diversity in literature.
Growing up in a small town in the South, Andrea was often the only Black child in her class. She struggled to fit in and find her place in a world that seemed to value whiteness above all else. Books became her refuge, a way to escape the harsh realities of segregation and racism. But it wasn't until she discovered books that reflected her own experiences that she truly began to feel seen and understood.
Inspired by her own journey, Andrea founded Little Birdie Books, a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting literacy and diversity in children's literature. Through Little Birdie Books, she has published a series of award-winning books that feature Black characters and explore themes of self-acceptance, resilience, and community. Her books have been praised for their authenticity, their ability to empower young readers, and their contribution to the growing movement for diversity in children's literature.
My Name Is Not Little Birdie Books is more than just a memoir; it is a call to action. Andrea's story is a reminder that representation matters, and that every child deserves to see themselves reflected in the books they read. It is a powerful and inspiring story that will resonate with anyone who has ever struggled with their identity or felt the sting of racism.
