Perfection submitted by Bookeepers on August 5, 2020, 8:27pm This book had beautiful art, wonderful characters and a great story.

Beautiful book and story. submitted by lmangus on August 25, 2020, 3:59pm As the other review stated above, the art is perfection. Also wonderful rhythm and pace for the words and story. So love that it is Daddy that supports her with her hair journey. An instant classic and staple for your picture book collection.

Great story submitted by Xris on February 15, 2021, 12:28am But I like the video better. Still you get to learn the little girl's name from the book and get more of an idea of what is going on, so there's that. Still love it!

Tender submitted by JennJenn on June 12, 2021, 10:37pm Love the family portrayed in this story and the tenderness between daddy and daughter.

So sweet! submitted by arader24 on June 13, 2021, 6:06pm I teared up when I read this one. It is adorable and the illustrations are beautiful.

Beautiful Story submitted by KBarkerPeters on June 26, 2021, 5:27pm The story and the art are beautiful, and both the dad and the daughter are portrayed in a sweet, realistic style. As a bonus, the story provides lots of opportunities for discussion about diversity in appearance, family structures, and gender roles.

Very sweet submitted by aylinjerkins on July 5, 2023, 10:04pm My kids love this book! I've even been inspired to try some of the hair styles on my daughter.
