(4) K-3 Illustrated by Brenda Joysmith. With occasionally awkward meter, fourteen poems describe the beauty of African-American hairstyles across generations--from Grandma's wigs to the art of draping with colorful wraps. Pastel illustrations capture different hair textures, including a baby's bald spot, a sculptured 'fro, and hot-comb waves.
Reviewer: Henrietta M. Smith
