pickMarlene's mom says she has bad hair and has it straightened at the salon every Sunday, but Marlene hates the salon and just wants to wear her hair natural. This was a lovely book exploring self-confidence, hair care, family, identity, and Black Dominican joy. The illustrations are lovely and do such a good job of conveying emotion. The author also takes care in handling mom's hesitance toward natural hair. #BIPOC #Comics

pickAll days can be improved by reading picture books with dinosaurs. 🦖 🦕
If Dinosaurs Had Hair is deliciously silly with great art. Whack of the P-Rex stretches the narrative to make an illustrated (sadly black and white) short chapter book for young readers, but refreshingly doesn't seem to push any educational content! Just fun monster hunting!
