Rump: The true story of Rumpelstiltskin by Liesl Shurtliff

Rump doesn't remember his true name--the name his mother whispered into his ear when he was born.  She died shortly after, and all he knows is that his name begins with Rump.  (This is an unfortunate nickname.)

Rump discovers his magical power of turning straw into gold, but this creates more problems than solutions.  He also learns the importance of names.
