Wanda's hair is really wild and the adults in her life are so mean about it! They keep asking her to comb her hair and go to the hairdresser, they keep telling her she looks like a sheepdog and making her write lines out on the chalkboard at school. This book follows a day in Wanda's life where things go really wild. Not only are the adults being mean about her hair, everything starts to go wrong. Animals start to attack her and things keep getting stuck in her hair. By the end of the day, she h...more
Wanda caught my attention because of my own precious girl with her free-spirited hair. Though I thought a lot of this story was really cute, there was something that just wasn't quite there for me. Maybe it had to do with the fact that I wasn't all that impressed with Wanda's mother... Jordan was excited to read it, but lost interest about half-way through.

A fun colorful romp about a girl's tough day with her uncontrollable hair.
Funny story about a young girl with crazy hair. Teaches self confidence.
An interesting book.
