<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br> <p>This little girl knows her hair is great just as it is. When people ask, "Why is your hair so BIG?" she answers, "Why isn't yours?" Her hair is soft, it protects her, it's both gentle and fierce. While some might worry about how it's different and try to contain it, she gives it the freedom to be so extraordinary it almost has a life of its own. <p/>Told in bold verse and vivid, fantastical illustrations, these critical questions will ring familiar, and the proud, confident answers show that what really matters is how readers see themselves.</p> <p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br> <p><b>*</b> "This uplifting, body-positive story will empower kids with highly textured hair to take pride in every inch of it." --<b><i>Kirkus Reviews</i>, starred review</b> <p/><b>* </b>"This sweet appreciation of a confident Black child and her beautiful, versatile hair declares, 'My hair is ME!'"<b><i> --Publishers Weekly</i></b><b>, starred review</b></p> <p/><br></br><p><b> About The Author </b></p></br></br> <p>M.L.
