Super fun, great book to read to elementary aged kids. Boy gets a terrible haircut and is afraid to go to the first day of school until he finds out a surprise the morning he's leaving that makes it all okay. Parents will enjoy as much as kids.
Moog-Moog, Space Barber became a name we referred to often in our home!
