Can't fix the date using datetime

How can I make 8-12 to be displayed as 12-August. I tried the following but somewhere I'm going wrong that is why I'm getting an error.

Tried like:

import datetime

dt = datetime.datetime.strptime("8-12", '%d-%b').strftime('%b-%d')

print(dt)

Output I'm expecting:

12-August

Error I'm having:

  File "C:\Users\WCS\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python36-32\lib\_strptime.py", line 362, in _strptime
    (data_string, format))
ValueError: time data '8-12' does not match format '%d-%b'

This should work:

import datetime

dt = datetime.datetime.strptime("8-12", '%m-%d').strftime('%d-%B')

print(dt)
# 12-August
