I really enjoyed this story because sometimes few African American girls have trouble accepting their hair texture. This story will show a child to love every part of their body. Also, another girl that having problem loving their hair will read this book and change her insight. This story is about an african american girl who celebrates her hair and ethnicity. The story talks of how a mom brushes her hair each day. The story talks of how people should cherish their hark and what hair signifies to many people. This story is a sweet story. I love the way it talks of how the mother brushes the little girls hair each night. This just reassures me the importance of making time for my little girl even if it's during the time that we are fixing her hair each day. The book shows a great bonding time with the mother and daughter in the book. As an extension activity this book could be used during a study of cultures. The book could be used to promote acceptance of a new child in a classroom that is different. This book could be used when studying a theme centered around All About Me. I love my hair is about a little girl who is getting her hair combed by her mom. The little girl hates for her hair to be combed so her mom tells her all the different ways her hair can be fixed, from corn rolls to buns it can be done. I really like the watercolor pictures in this book. I like the story to it is about self acceptance. This book was wrote for children four to eight years old, and that is the right age when children like to find stuff about themselves they dont like for example hair combing. I would use this in the classroom if I were teaching about self acceptance or teaching a hair lesson. I would also let the children draw a picture using water colors. This book is about an African American girl who comes to love and accept her hair the way it is. She is able to find the good things about her hair. I think this book can teach a child to love the person they are and not wish to be different. This book helped me to realize that maybe, just maybe my daughter maybe a little tender headed and that I needed to be a littlebit more gentle. It also allowed my daughter to understand that she is not the only little girl that doesn't enjoy her hair being combed. no reviews | add a review
