Hair of Zoe Fleefenbacher Goes to School by Laurie Halse Anderson

4.0

Zoe Fleefenbacher has bright red, wild, amazing hair that can do all kinds of things, like play with the cat, brush her teeth, and turn on the television all at the same time. Zoe’s hair has a life of its own and her parents and Kindergarten teacher think its great.

But Ms. Trisk, Zoe’s first grade teacher, is all about rules and order. Wild hair has no place in her class. How will Zoe cope?

The Hair of Zoe Fleefenbacher Goes to School is a very cute book with vibrant illustrations. The things Zoe’s hair does are funny and will highly entertain little girls. It is a story with the underlying message that although rules should be followed, you should not contain what makes you special and for Zoe, that is her hair.

Recommended for girls four to seven.
