Women & Children First

Description

Isabel is determined to be very very good, but a good day turns horrid when she finds a pair of scissors on Mommy's dressing table. Snip by snip, her curly locks fall to the floor. Maybe this "haircut" wasn't such a good idea after all!

Cutting your own hair is a universal "mistake" of childhood. Grown-ups and children alike easily remember the "little" haircut they gave themselves. With this reassuring story, young children will understand that even horrid mistakes can usually be fixed.
