Big Bouffant by Kate Hosford; illustrations by Holly Clifton-Brown

Rachel's comments:


This was such an adorable and hilarious book about fashion and self-expression. When Annabelle enters the classroom for the first day, she becomes frustrated when she sees that all the girls are wearing the same boring hairstyle. She wants something different, and when she goes home, she sees the perfect solution in an old hairstyle of her grandma's, the bouffant. This book radiates with bright colors and is fashionably fabulous enough to attract Fancy Nancy fans. The simple rhyming text makes it a great pick for storytime, and the humor will draw in parents as well as preschoolers.
