Starred Review
Toddler-PreS--Time for a first haircut! This gentle milestone story follows a small white toddler with blond hair as he realizes it is time for a trim. "Look in the mirror. Push it up...Down it falls." Sparse text and simple illustrations keep the focus on the experience, making the book appropriate for its intended audience. By showing the haircut from beginning to end, the story may ease worries for little ones preparing for their own appointment. VERDICT A first purchase.
