Selected by Essence Magazine as a "Top Book All Little Girls Should Read!"
Celebrate natural hair and self-love in this enchanting story about a young girl discovering that being different is her greatest superpower.

With a mother’s loving encouragement, Penny learns that "different" doesn't mean bad—it means extraordinary. When her mom styles her hair into beautiful natural hair puffs, Penny discovers a world of wonder. She soon finds that wonderful, magical things happen whenever she wears her puffballs!

Representation in multicultural children's literature
Join Penny on her magical journey and help the little girl in your life instill a sense of pride and "Black Girl Magic" in her own unique beauty. Perfect for fans of Hair Love and Sulwe.

Paperback. Etat : Fair. Goshay, Tyrus (illustrateur). Penny wanted to wear her hair down like all of the other girls in her class. She wondered why her friends had long straight hair and she did not. Feeling different made her feel sad. Penny's mom assured her that her hair is perfect. Just because her hair is different from her friends hair, it didn't mean that it was bad. Penny's mom decides to style her hair in puffballs, magic puffballs. Penny learns though a series of fun adventures, that wonderful and magical things happen when she wears her puffballs. Join Penny as she discovers the magic of her puffballs. Message from the author: Penny was born out of my love for my daughter, Paris, and my desire for her to feel comfortable, confident and secure in her skin. Paris questioned why her hair was different from all of the other girls' and wondered why she couldn't wear her hair like theirs. I wanted her to understand that her hair was different but that different didn't mean bad. One night, I made up a bedtime story about a little girl named Penny who had magic puffballs in her hair. Both my daughter and my son loved it so much that they wanted to hear about Penny every night. To keep it interesting, each night I added a different adventure, and from time to time I introduced additional characters. The kids loved these stories so much that Penny became a staple in our bedtime routine. I ended up with more than 30 stories, and we enjoyed Penny's adventures for many, many years. The idea for a book came to me as I saw little girls throughout my travels with their hair styled in puffballs. I thought it would be great to be able to tell these girls the story of Penny, a little girl like them. Little girls often notice their hair as one of the first areas of difference, and seeing this as bad can lead to a poor self-image. It is my hope that through this book, other girls will see a bit of themselves in Penny and enjoy her magic puffballs. N° de réf. du vendeur 00098445746
