The Power of Hair
I think for in many non-white cultures hair is a place of shame and you know in reading this book my own daughter looked at it and was just gushing at how beautiful everybody's hair was in it. I feel like your book just crossed many cultures but helped my daughter understand how much we can learn from native peoples. Do you want young indigenous children to feel proud of themselves and their hair? If so, please share your story with us by emailing jennifer.smith@mailonline.com.
