The Girl Who Wouldn't Brush Her Hair (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9780375868788)

This hilarious, over-the-top story is perfect for any little girl who doesn't like to brush her hair.

What happens when our heroine neglects her long tresses? Well, one day a mouse comes to live in a particularly tangled lock. Soon after, more mice move in, and the girl's unruly mop is transformed into a marvelous mouse palace complete with secret passageways and a cheese cellar! But as the girl comes to find out, living with more than a hundred mice atop your head isn't always easy. . . .

"This tale will send kids the message that they must take care of their tresses." --Booklist

"There are parents who will weep with joy at the prospect of a book that may encourage little Susie or Sam to finally brush that mane." --The Bulletin
