Jazz
music, loud voices and laughter blend with the buzz of the clippers and
the soft whisper of scissors skimming loose hairs from a freshly cut head.
“First hair cut”, one of the men asks. Miles wonders if the
clippers hurt? What if the barber cuts my ear? Why does everyone keep saying
‘Be Brave’? This warm, reassuring story with its rich, lively watercolors
beautifully depict the special first hair cut ritual between father and
son. (Gwendolyn M. Davis, South
Carolina Book Awards, 2006) |
