Budde, Nadia

Bristly Hair and I Don't Care!

(4) K-3 Through rhyming text (in sometimes hard-to-read cursive), wacky characters complain about their looks. From not having enough fur to being overweight, everyone has an issue, except for Uncle Nooks, who "doesn't care about looks" and convinces them that they are wonderful just the way they are. While the message of self-acceptance is clear, Budde's artwork hovers between really funny and slightly unsettling.
