The Hair Book

An easy reader about hair—and all the things you can do with it!

This super-simple, rhymed riff features a charming cast of human and animal characters sporting all kinds of hair—short, long, curly, straight, dark, fair, braided, tied, washed, dyed—you name it! Written for children learning to read on their own, it's filled with words and concepts kids encounter every day. Perfect for reading aloud or reading alone, it's also great for starting discussions about which kinds of animals have hair and which do not. With bright, energetic artwork by Andrew Joyner, this is the kind of fun, easy reader that is hard for kids to put down!

Bright and Early Books are perfect for beginning beginner readers! Launched by Dr. Seuss in 1968 with The Foot Book, Bright and Early Books use fewer and easier words than Beginner Books. Readers just starting to recognize words and sound out letters will love these short books with colorful illustrations.
