A Hair-Raising Adventure!
What would you do if your hair just wasn’t growing fast enough? Well, obviously, you’d ask your pets to help… wouldn’t you?
Follow Bear’s hair-raising adventure as he asks his furry household inhabitants, “Will you be my hair?” Can any of them help, or will the most unlikely heroes of the house step up to the challenge?
This heartwarming picture book celebrates creativity, problem-solving, family bonds, and the magic of a mother’s love. Bear realises that the best hair was right there all along. Oh, did we forget to mention the spiders?
Spider Hair is Laura’s first picture book, but she has plans to create more adventures for Bear. She hopes that children and families will find joy and laughter in Bear’s imaginative quest for the perfect hair.
