*********

Zuri has hair that kinks and coils and curls every which  way and lets her be her.  She can change her hair into poufs or braids to be a superhero or a princess depending on the day.

Then, one special day comes along and Zuri needs a very special hairstyle.  So Daddy volunteers to help.  He gives it a couple of tries and she gives him a couple of hard stares. Can he get it right?  Does he have the magic touch?

A lovely story about the very special love between a father and his daughter and the wonderful things that can happen inside a family.
