“I’ve bought loads of books for my young one and I can say by far this is the best. My little one absolutely loves is and reads it all day everyday. And what’s great is there’s a read along that comes with it, FOR FREE!”
John KaffashAmazon“Lovely book for kids sharing a sweet story packed full of nuggets of knowledge about hair. Great for all kids and the song is one of the catchiest I've ever heard from a Kid's book. Check it out.”
Roger EbertAmazon“More books like this needed. I think it is great for all ages and is fun. Many opportunities for discussion points and the travel through history is a clever angle. I bought 5 copies for my childcare settings. Highly recommend this book.”
