A
very determined Wally
Does Not Want a Haircut
in Amanda Driscoll's engaging picture book about a very woolly lamb who's not at all sheepish about expressing his point of view.
'Wally did NOT need a haircut. Nobody could make him get one'
, even after Mama and Sheepdog - and all kinds of other critters - showed him how it was done (you have to love the bulls' braids and pigs' wigs!)
W
ally wouldn't budge until all the animals danced the haircut hoedown - and he was stuck. Guess where this is going? You're right. Wally gets unstuck and does the thing he missed most.
T
he illustrations make this sweet story exceptional. Read it with a child who's reluctant to have a haircut; it just might change their mind.
