Publisher's Synopsis
Most mornings, Mom pulls Bee's wild and monstrous hair into a neat ponytail that keeps the hair out of Bee's way throughout her busy day. Today, Mommy is sick, so Dad and Bee work together to get Bee ready for school. All goes well until it's time to tidy Bee's unruly mane. Dad does his best, pulling Bee's hair into every shape imaginable except the familiar and functional ponytail Bee loves. After much effort and over-engineering on Dad's part, Bee figures out a solution to the ponytail problem.
Readers will adore this unexpected twist on familiar morning routine and celebration of the joy of learning skills of independence, and they'll delight in Dad's inventive and humorous alternatives to the simple classic ponytail.
A charming story written in fun-to-read rhyme, with beautiful drawings by Relly Weltman who, in this artistic debut at age 81, illustrates that we're never too young or too old to learn new things.
