I have mixed feelings about this book. It's a book that's more enjoyable once you figure out the rhythm-- either reading it more than once yourself or listening to someone else read it. I liked that it's culturally different in style and language. Once I figured out what was going on, I thought that the plot was also fun. But I have to admit that I didn't enjoy reading it as I read it through the first time.
Little girl doesn't want to get her hair combed, cute mother-daughter play jungle story.
This has become one of my very favorite read aloud books EVER.

"I was born in Queens, N.Y, on April 13, 1957. My mother, Miss Essie, named me 'NoMo' immediately after my birth. Although I was her last child, I took my time making my appearance. I like to believe I was dreaming up a good story and wouldn’t budge until I was finished. Even now, my daughters call me 'Pokey Mom', because I slow poke around when they want to go-go-go.
