With tenderness, humor, and a touch of magic, this story celebrates neurodivergent kids and the creative ways they meet the world.\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eMax is a little boy whose hair grows until it makes him look like a lion. And he can roar! But that means it's time for a haircut. Max doesn't like it when his mom takes him to Wendy's Hairdressing Salon. It's too bright and noisy. He doesn't like the water spray and having the protective cloth tied round his neck. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAnd when Wendy starts snipping, he hates it. \"STOP\" he shouts. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBut then Wendy has a clever idea. When little boys have a cat and a bubble-blower to play with, they don't mind having their hair cut at all. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eSamareh Azadi's debut picture book perfectly captures the situation all little boys and their mothers must face-his first haircut.
