REVIEWS:"Loved the themes/content covered in this book. I am always searching for books with positive representation of people/kids of color. Highly recommend having this one on the bookshelf!"
R. Zimmermann, LCSW"What a lovely book to support young girls exploring their self-esteem and self-confidence as it relates to their hair and identity. I think the font you used was perfect for that age and book was not too long or too short. It's great that you provided some prompts at the end of the story to open up the conversation further. The illustrations were done very well and I especially liked the page that had various hair styles and looks.
I do, however, wonder about the sections involving spirituality and religion. Perhaps you could have one version to include that and one that does not for families who may not be religious?"
