The Hair Book


The Hair Book
By Graham Tether
Pictures by Roy Mckie
1979

I have a growing collection of Beginner Books and this is the newest addition.


HAIR!
HAIR!
It's everywhere.
Some have a little.
Some have lots.
Plain hair.
Striped hair.
Polka dots.
Curls and braids
and beards and lashes
Whiskers
Eyebrows
Long mustaches.

Dark hair.
Fair hair.

Plain
or dyed,
Loose
or tied.
Curly
or straight,

Hair is Great!


It’s too bad I didn’t own this book sooner. As you can see in the picture below, my hair was a bit ….. Curly! My sister’s hair, on the other hand, was smooth and light brown and not nearly as tangled as the mess that sat atop my head.


I suppose I am grateful that this book shows diversity in a positive way while teaching children to appreciate their hair no matter what size, shape or, in my case, kink it has.
