Customer Reviews

so cute!

This book is adorable in its message and its pictures. Great book for a baby because of the board book....baby can chew on it and loves to look at the colorful pictures. I gave it as a gift and they love it.

Lots of Laughs

My toddler LOVES this book, he giggles through the whole thing. He insists on reading it over and over and over.

I like most of Todd Parr's books

The illustrations are what caught my eye with Todd Parr. I like the simple text in his books as well, but I only gave 4 stars because some of the text is a little too out there ("This is my hair when a flying saucer landed in it") and the repetiton becomes a little monotonous for the reader. I really like the messages sent in his books, or in this case, directly stated.

This is my Hair

Great way to get my 3 year old to think about her alopecia. She went away and thought about it for a while and then came back and started asking questions. A light hearted way to start talking about being bald. Lovely illustrations. The last page comes very abruptly and I felt it was a bit of a shock after pages of this is me with my hair in the snow, in the wind etc and then this is me with no hair.

This is a very fun and clever look at how silly hair can be.

I was having a 'bad' hair day when someone gave this book to me and it instantly made me laugh. The last page of the book summarizes it all: "No matter how your hair looks, always feel good about yourself." This book is so simple, yet inspiring to people of all ages.
