I couldn’t love this more...the adoration of Black hair, the Daddy/daughter relationship and Blue Ivy’s sweet voice...a beautiful story!

Words and illustrations pair together, play together in this wonderful tangle. By no means a perfect book (there's no music in the language, resulting in certain clunky passages), the best thing about this book is its focus -- a small, young, black girl who insists on the perfect hairdo. And all her daddy wants to do is help. A lovely addition to any collection, would pair particularly well with Derrick Barnes' "Crown: An Ode to the Fresh Cut".

A wonderful, fantastic book on every level. Love for natural hair and hairstyles. Dads in "nurturing" roles. Dad's got a tattoo! A family full of love and joy and so many amazing things!

Is there anything better than a story that celebrates the relationship between a father and daughter and unique hair types?!

A really sweet book about fathers and daughters and loving yourself.

Adorable! Blue Ivy did an excellent job at narrating this -- her voice is so cute.

very sweet :) hair is drawn very well in this! baby girl we have got to get you a bonnet or scarf to sleep in... the morning detangling must be brutal....

I love the celebration of natural hair!

And for the Kindle version, although it is in that detested fixed view that doesn't allow for zooming in, the font and size of the text allow it to be readable tho l had to use a magnifying glass.

This is a cute book for children and it's a great way to teach black children to love their hair for what it is. The story is a bit short and not very well fleshed out though, but that is to be expected with a children's book. I give it an extra star because I liked the illustrations in the book.
