An excellent book for stimulating conversation on diversity

Hats Off To Hair is an excellent book to read to a group of children in order to stimulate conversations on diversity. Kroll identifies numerous hairstyles for a variety of different ethnic groups. The illustrations are also excellent. My only criticism is that some of the names of the hairstyles and children's names are difficult to pronounce without the phonetic spelling.

An excellent book for stimulating conversation on diversity.

Hats Off To Hair is an excellent book to use to stimulate conversation on diversity amongst a group of children. Kroll identifies hairstyles specific to numerous different ethnic groups. The children's names are also representative of their culture. The illustrations in the book are very realistic. My only criticism would be that some of the names of the children and names of the hairstyles are difficult to pronounce without the phonetic spelling.
