Review Quotes:
- "Told with simplicity in short, clipped sentences, The
Haircut will be relatable to toddlers, many of whom will have some
anxiety about getting their hair cut for the first time. The large book format,
with padded covers and rounded corners, is perfect for little ones, and the
heavy pages make it both durable and easy for toddlers to turn the pages. Renné
Benoit's soft watercolor illustrations, rendered in muted shades of blue, tan
and sienna with pops of red, add charm to the story....Recommended." --CM
