This is a great middle grade graphic novel.

Wonderful illustrations, with a charming, determined main character who learns to love her hair despite all the negative messaging she is bombarded with about it. She faces many obstacles including anti-blackness, unsupportive family members, and bullies at school.

Luckily, she has a small support system that shows her how things can be and is guided towards self acceptance and self love.

Highly recommend this to young readers, and look forward to seeing more from this author.
