Medusa refuses to care for her hair, her long locks getting knottier and
dirtier with each passing page. Her hair rebellion elicits frozen
expressions of shock from her family, but nothing will convince Medusa
to brush. Only her hairdresser approaches Medusa with bravery and a
blade, successfully solving the problem . . . with a short haircut! All
are pleased with this drastic yet adorable solution. Leslie Patricelli's
depictions of this physical comedy bring a lively visual narrative to
Joan Holub's expertly focused text. Includes a summary of the original
Medusa's Wild Hair myth at the end.
