Based on the Oscar winning short film!
It's up to Daddy to give his daughter an extra-special hair style in this story of self-confidence and the love between fathers and daughters.
Zuri knows her hair is beautiful, but it has a mind of its own!
It kinks, coils, and curls every which way. Mum always does Zuri's hair just the way she likes it - so when Daddy steps in to style it for an extra special occasion, he has a lot to learn.
But he LOVES his Zuri, and he'll do anything to make her - and her hair - happy.
Tender and empowering, Hair Love is an ode to loving your natural hair - and a celebration of daddies and daughters everywhere.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Based on Cherry's animated short film of the same title, this picture book about a black girl and her hair pairs the first-time children's book author and Harrison, an author, illustrator, and filmmaker. Zuri is proud of her hair, which "kinks, coils, and curls every which way." But she needs a spectacular coif on a special day. Her devoted father tackles the task, gamely noting that it will be "a piece of cake." Harrison's emotionally charged digital images of Zuri's reactions match the exasperated girl's spot-on utterances: when he desperately pulls a woolen hat over her head, she urges, "We can do better than that" and they do. With Zuri's encouragement, her stylist nails it, fashioning "funky puff buns" just in time for a rewarding apogee: Mommy's return home. A bighearted ode to individuality and father-daughter collaboration. Ages 4 8.
