Hair (Leslie Patricelli Board Books) Board book – January 3, 2017

This book uses very simple language, demonstrating how we care for our hair, then walks the reader through the main character's first haircut experience at a children's hair parlor. I read it to my 20-month-old, and she loved the bright pictures. She asked me to read it to her around 8 times in a row when we first got it and continued to ask to read it for several days.We read it to her for 2 days, then explained at the end of the second day that she would be getting a haircut like the child in the book. Due to all the details the book provided, she was totally chill for her first haircut experience, and I largely credit that to the fact that she knew what to expect because of this story. There are also several hair-related vocabulary words with pictures in the back of the book. I highly recommend this book for any child developing their language skills and due for a haircut soon!

Easy book about self care for your young one to learn and read. Helps talk through a hair cut at the kids barber shop and when you brush and wash your hair. Concepts all toddlers need to understand and visually see happen to someone they can identify with in a non gender conforming book.I like that this kid is a kid and not identified a specific gender. Not something you come across in most books unless it’s an animal... and not even then.These are a fun series as the “Toilet book” is one we also have. Easy to read, not boring. Bright colors in the background grab my kids attention.What’s not to like?

Fun, durable board book with cute artistry & enjoyable story for your little one. Giftable

Love love love this book! Walks kids through the process of getting a haircut ... and when/why they need a haircut. My son cried through his haircuts so we started reading this book almost daily. When it was time for his haircut I followed most of the narrative of the book. I feel he felt some excitement that the book was coming true ... especially when the stylist sprayed water on his hair. So happy with this purchase as it has really lessened my sons fear of haircuts.

I own many of these book by Leslie Patricelli. Each one deals with a different topic, (potty training, bed time, treating pets, being quiet instead of being loud, being happy and sad, taking a bath, Halloween, Easter, Christmas, etc.) My child loves having me or her mom read them to her and she cannot get enough of them! We have read them so many times that she now knows them by heart, she sits down and pretends to read them. We have had these books from before she was 1 year old, so about a year and a half. She has handled them constantly and they have withstood the abuse. Highly recommended.

Another great book by Leslie Patricelli. We have most of them (excluding a few that I find have odd or inappropriate messaging). This one is perfect for our 16 month old to help her prepare for her first haircut. It does a nice job of explaining the haircut process simply and positively, including touching on the emotional side - that it can be scary, but haircuts don't hurt. Well handled. Now let's hope the first haircut goes as well!

This book is ADORABLE. So fun and funny! Cute illustrations. We regularly gift an assortment of favorite baby books to new parents we know. The curated "collection" includes our favorites from almost 19 years ago (when our son was born). However, I wanted to add something new, and I am so glad I ordered one from Amazon to see it in person.

Our toddler has always loved Leslie Patricelli books, so we decided to purchase this one. It’s pretty entertaining and does a nice job of describing a first haircut, and why a child shouldn’t be scared. The bright colors and fun drawings are standard quality for this author, and our kid loves to pick out this book from a pile.
