Zuri has magical hair and a father determined to make her happy. In Hair Love , they must find the perfect hairstyle to welcome the girl's mother. But dealing with magic isn't as simple as they thought. The book is inspired by the Oscar-winning film for Best Animated Short Film.
Zuri's hair is magical. It can be braided and curled to perfectly match a princess tiara or a superhero cape. And Zuri knows her hair is beautiful! But a super special day calls for an even more special hairstyle.
Zuri's mother is returning home after medical treatment. And while she still has a lot to learn when it comes to hair, her father is responsible for helping her create the perfect hairstyle to welcome her mother home. He'll do anything to make his daughter happy, even learning the difference between a cornrow braid and a twist braid.
